What if postpartum weight loss didn’t require cutting carbs, tracking every bite, or sacrificing your milk supply? In this episode, I’m breaking down the 5 shifts that helped me lose 60 pounds postpartum,  sustainably. At six weeks postpartum, I wasn’t focused on weight. At six months, I still wasn’t focused on weight & hadn’t lost all the baby weight. I didn’t even own a scale. At one year? Everything shifted. Most of my postpartum weight loss happened between 9–18 months postpartum. Not in the first 9 months. And this was different than my others.  And that’s important. Your body is not on a deadline. Each postpartum experience is different from one another.  What to Listen For Why postpartum weight loss doesn’t have to a timeline How to take a break from the scale Why protein and fiber matter more than restriction The power of consistent meal timing How strength training supports metabolism Why blood sugar regulation is everything How to stop emotional eating at night Why supplements matter postpartum Why habits > outcome goals How to support your body instead of fighting it Postpartum weight loss is possible  without restriction, obsession, or losing your milk supply.

In this episode of Nutrition for Mamas, postpartum dietitian Brooke Miller talks with board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Stefanie Reinald about the real, nuanced middle ground between intuitive eating and wanting to lose weight as a mom.

We discuss: • What intuitive eating actually gets right • Where intuitive eating can miss the mark for moms • Why wanting weight loss is not automatically unhealthy • How nourishing your body can naturally support fat loss • Protein and fiber needs for postpartum moms • Hormones, set-point weight, and metabolism after pregnancy • When tracking food helps vs when it hurts • Why the scale is neutral (but not always helpful) • GLP-1 medications and modern weight culture • How to feel more comfortable in your body today • Healthy motivation vs punishment mindset Dr. Reinald shares clinical insight from working with women with eating disorders, postpartum mental health struggles, and hormone imbalances, along with her personal experience as a mom of four.

If you’ve ever thought: “I shouldn’t feel this tired.” “I used to handle more than this.” “I love my kids but I feel empty.” This episode will change how you see your body, brain, and season of life. 🎧 Part 2 covers intuitive eating, weight loss after baby, and finding balance without dieting 📍 Connect with Dr. Stefanie Reinald: Websites: https://www.stefanireinoldmd.com/  http://www.wholeheartedpsychiatry.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehormonepsychiatrist ----------------------- Please rate, review and subscribe to the podcast! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💛 Explore all programs and resources: https://linktr.ee/brooke.miller.nutrition Come say hi on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/nutrition.for.mamas/ Subscribe to Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BrookeMMiller Free Workshop: How Busy Moms Reach Their Healthiest Weight Without Spending Hours in the Kitchen: https://www.busymommeals.com/cookingclassworkshopig Join Busy Mom Meals: High protein 15 minute or less meals: https://www.busymommeals.com/monthly  Is your toddler a picky eater?

You're eating healthier or less than you did before kids. You're trying so hard. But the scale won't budge and you're exhausted. If weight loss used to feel easy and now feels impossible, this episode is for you. I'm breaking down why your body responds differently after kids, why "trying harder" actually backfires, and what actually works to lose weight in this season without burning yourself out. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why weight loss feels so much harder after kids (even years later) What actually changes in your body after pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding How depletion, stress, and mental load impact your hormones and metabolism Why "trying harder" and eating less keeps you stuck What happens when your body goes into protection mode Why staying stuck can feel safer than changing (even when you want results) The real shift busy moms need: support, not punishment What actually works: consistent meals, enough protein, simple routines Why consistency looks different now (and that's okay) How I lost 60 pounds and got 20 pounds under my pre-baby weight after three kids Weight loss after kids isn't harder because you lack willpower. It's harder because your body is more sensitive to stress and underfueling. When you skip meals, live off coffee, and push through exhaustion, your body goes into protection mode and holds onto weight. The solution isn't eating less or doing more. It's supporting your body with enough protein, stable blood sugar, consistent meals, and simple movement. Weight loss becomes a side effect of support, not punishment. ----------------------- Please rate, review and subscribe to the podcast! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💛 Explore all programs and resources: https://linktr.ee/brooke.miller.nutrition Come say hi on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/nutrition.for.mamas/ Subscribe to Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BrookeMMiller Free Workshop: How Busy Moms Reach Their Healthiest Weight Without Spending Hours in the Kitchen: https://www.busymommeals.com/cookingclassworkshopig Join Busy Mom Meals: High protein 15 minute or less meals: https://www.busymommeals.com/monthly  Is your toddler a picky eater?

Feeling weak, depleted, or unsure how to rebuild strength after baby? In this episode, I sit down with Val, a functional sports dietitian and postpartum fitness coach, to talk about postpartum strength training. We cover how to ease back into movement, rebuild core strength, and avoid common pitfalls many moms make when they return to exercise. If you want to feel strong, confident, and energized again, this episode is for you! What to Listen For… The difference between movement vs. structured exercise in postpartum recovery How to know if your body is truly ready for postpartum strength training Why the 6-week "clearance" doesn't mean you're fully healed or ready for high-impact workouts Signs your core and pelvic floor are not healing properly (and what to do about it) Gentle ways to reconnect with your body in early postpartum The role of breathwork and posture in preventing injury and rebuilding strength How to modify strength workouts to fit your energy levels and schedule What diastasis recti really means and how to heal it without fear Why strength training is more effective than cardio for long-term results How to challenge yourself safely without risking burnout or injury Postpartum strength training isn’t about pushing through exhaustion or "getting your body back." It’s about honoring where you are and rebuilding strength that supports your everyday life as a mom. Whether you're carrying a car seat, chasing a toddler, or just craving more energy, this episode is your permission slip to start slow and rebuild strong.

It’s not your age. It’s not that you’re a sugar addict. And it’s definitely not a discipline problem. What’s actually blocking your results is way deeper… And before you think this is fluffy advice, hang on. I’m walking you through real research that shows your thoughts can change your metabolism, cravings, hunger hormones, and even your weight… without changing a single thing you eat. Yep. Really. This one is SHOCKING. 🤯 Two moms can eat the same meals, do the same workouts, live the same life… and only one sees results. The difference? What she believes about herself. How she identifies herself.  If you’ve ever told yourself things like “I always fall off the wagon,” “Nothing works for me,” I’m just a sugar addict,” or “My metabolism is broken,” this episode is your wake up call. Inside this episode you’ll learn: Why mindset is real science, not fluff • The wild placebo GLP 1 study that changed hunger and cravings • The hotel cleaner study where women lost weight just by believing their work counted as exercise • How your thoughts change your hunger hormones and metabolism • Why two moms can do the same things and get totally different results • Why you keep “falling off the wagon” and how to break the cycle • How shifting your identity creates long term success This one’s for you if: ✔ You feel like you can’t stick with anything ✔ You think you’re addicted to sugar or don’t have discipline ✔ You’re convinced your metabolism is broken ✔ You’ve tried everything and still feel stuck ✔ You want to feel good again but you’re scared to fail You’re not broken. Your mindset just needs a reset. And this episode shows you how. 💛 ----------------------- Please rate, review and subscribe to the podcast! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💛 Explore all programs and resources: https://linktr.ee/brooke.miller.nutrition Come say hi on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/nutrition.for.mamas/ Subscribe to Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BrookeMMiller Free Workshop: How Busy Moms Reach Their Healthiest Weight Without Spending Hours in the Kitchen: https://www.busymommeals.com/cookingclassworkshopig Join Busy Mom Meals: High protein 15 minute or less meals: https://www.busymommeals.com/monthly  Is your toddler a picky eater? Save your seat in this FREE training with my dietitian bestie & picky eating expert: https://nutritionforlittles.com/freetraining-aff/?ref=brooke57 Get a 7 day free trial & save 15% off the yearly subscription of the Expecting & Empowered Workout App!

You think you’re overeating at night because you lack discipline. But the real issue? You’re starting your day on an empty stomach. If your mornings look like chaos, cold coffee, and zero protein… your metabolism is screaming for help. And by the time the kids go to bed, your body is in full on snack attack mode. In this episode, I break down why skipping breakfast messes with your hormones, blood sugar, energy, and cravings, and what to eat so you finally feel in control again. You’ll learn: • Why skipping breakfast spikes stress and crashes blood sugar • The real reason you feel out of control with food at night • How breakfast impacts cravings, mood, metabolism, and weight • Why breakfast eaters burn more calories than dinner eaters • What a fast, balanced, high protein breakfast looks like for busy moms This is for you if: ✔ Mornings are chaos and coffee is your “meal” ✔ You feel exhausted, irritable, or foggy by noon ✔ You snack hard at night after the kids go to bed ✔ You want easier cravings, steadier energy, and a healthier weight ------------------ Please rate, review and subscribe to the podcast! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💛 Explore all programs and resources: https://linktr.ee/brooke.miller.nutrition Come say hi on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/nutrition.for.mamas/ Subscribe to Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BrookeMMiller Free Workshop: How Busy Moms Reach Their Healthiest Weight Without Spending Hours in the Kitchen: https://www.busymommeals.com/cookingclassworkshopig Join Busy Mom Meals: High protein 15 minute or less meals: https://www.busymommeals.com/monthly  Is your toddler a picky eater? Save your seat in this FREE training with my dietitian bestie & picky eating expert: https://nutritionforlittles.com/freetraining-aff/?ref=brooke57 Get a 7 day free trial & save 15% off the yearly subscription of the Expecting & Empowered Workout App!

Every year you promise yourself a total makeover... and every year you end up exhausted, overwhelmed, and right back where you started. Not because you’re not motivated. Not because you don’t care. But because you’re trying to overhaul everything at once. The truth? Real change sticks when you build one small habit at a time in the right order. In this episode, I’m breaking down why New Year goals fall apart for busy moms and how to create habits that actually support your energy, mood, metabolism, and the version of you you’re trying to become. You’ll hear: • Why changing 10 things at once backfires • The biggest mistake moms make when choosing habits • The one habit I changed this year that transformed my patience, energy, and confidence • Why morning workouts work even if you swear you’re not a morning person • How to stack habits like building blocks so they stick all year This is for you if: ✔ You try to become a brand new person every January ✔ You start strong then slip back into old patterns ✔ You want to feel better than you did before kids ✔ You’re ready for habits that support your real life, not drain it A few of my fave takeaways from the episode: "Your brain can’t handle too many new decisions at once." "Sometimes staying stuck feels safer than making a change." "Habits work when you build them like blocks with the right mindset behind them." "I don’t say I’m not a morning person anymore because I proved I can follow through." Simple shifts. Real results.

You're doing everything "right." You're eating less. You're moving more. You're cutting carbs. You're even breastfeeding, which is supposed to "melt the weight off," right? Yet the scale isn't budging. Your energy is tanking. Your mood is suffering. And honestly? You're starting to feel like your body is broken. Here's what nobody tells you: The advice you've been following isn't wrong for everyone… it's just wrong for YOU right now. Your body isn't the same as it was before having kids. Your hormones are different. Your metabolism is different. Your needs are different. But the weight loss rules? They're still the same old "eat less, move more" nonsense that's actually working AGAINST you. In this week's episode, Brooke breaks down: Why the "eat less, move more" rule backfires for moms (and what actually works) The real reason breastfeeding alone won't melt the weight off Why cutting carbs is sabotaging your mood AND your milk supply How strength training beats cardio for long-term results Why the scale is lying to you (and what to focus on instead) How to rebuild your metabolism instead of restricting it The truth? Weight loss after baby doesn't have to feel like a battle. When you shift from restriction to rebuilding, everything changes, your energy, your mood & even your metabolism. ----------------------- Please rate, review and subscribe to the podcast! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💛 Explore all programs and resources: https://linktr.ee/brooke.miller.nutrition Come say hi on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/nutrition.for.mamas/ Subscribe to Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BrookeMMiller Free Workshop: How Busy Moms Reach Their Healthiest Weight Without Spending Hours in the Kitchen: https://www.busymommeals.com/cookingclassworkshopig Join Busy Mom Meals: High protein 15 minute or less meals: https://www.busymommeals.com/monthly  Is your toddler a picky eater? Save your seat in this FREE training with my dietitian bestie & picky eating expert: https://nutritionforlittles.com/freetraining-aff/?ref=brooke57 Get a 7 day free trial & save 15% off the yearly subscription of the Expecting & Empowered Workout App!

“I just ate... why am I STILL starving?" If you've said this more than once, your body is actually trying to tell you something. Here's what most moms don't realize: It's not about willpower. It's not about eating more. It's about what you're actually putting on your plate. The truth is, you could be eating the "right" foods and still feel like a bottomless pit because your meals are missing one critical element and it doesn’t necessarily have to do with calories . In this week's episode, Brooke breaks down: Why your hunger is actually WORSE now than during pregnancy (and what's really causing it) The #1 nutrient that keeps you full between meals (most moms are completely missing this) The biggest breakfast mistake that's sabotaging your entire day How to build a plate that actually satisfies you without obsessing over food The best part? You don't have to give up your favorite foods or your milk supply to feel nourished and strong. 🎉 Check out Busy Mom Meals or Brooke’s free postpartum nutrition workshop to finally take the guesswork out of what to eat.

What I Actually Eat in a Day (As a Dietitian & Mom of 3) Let me guess, you think dietitians meal prep on Sundays, eat perfectly balanced meals, and never touch a chicken nugget. Spoiler: Nope. I'm a registered dietitian and a mom of three. Which means my meals need to be fast, simple, and actually doable on days when I'm running on fumes. No fancy recipes. No hours in the kitchen. No pretending I have it all together. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain and showing you exactly what I eat in a real day, the good, the lazy, and the "this is what's happening today." 🎧 Here's what you'll discover: ✅ My 5-minute breakfast that keeps me full until lunch (no mid-morning crash) ✅ Why I never drink coffee on an empty stomach and what I do instead ☕ ✅ The "lazy lunch" hack I use when I have zero time (and zero shame about it) ✅ What goes into my collagen latte and why it's a total game-changer ✅ Simple dinners that work for the whole family, no separate "kid meals" required ✅ How frozen veggies and salad kits literally save my sanity ✅ Why I don't stress about eating different things every single day Here's the truth: You don't need fancy recipes, expensive ingredients, or hours in the kitchen to feel better and support your body. You just need realistic, repeatable meals that actually fit your life. 👉 Listen now and get a behind-the-scenes look at what simple, balanced eating actually looks like when you're a real human with a real life. ----------------------- Please rate, review and subscribe to the podcast! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💛 Explore all programs and resources: https://linktr.ee/brooke.miller.nutrition Come say hi on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/nutrition.for.mamas/ Subscribe to Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BrookeMMiller Free Workshop: How Busy Moms Reach Their Healthiest Weight Without Spending Hours in the Kitchen: https://www.busymommeals.com/cookingclassworkshopig Join Busy Mom Meals: High protein 15 minute or less meals: https://www.busymommeals.com/monthly  Is your toddler a picky eater? Save your seat in this FREE training with my dietitian bestie & picky eating expert: https://nutritionforlittles.com/freetraining-aff/?ref=brooke57 Get a 7 day free trial & save 15% off the yearly subscription of the Expecting & Empowered Workout App!

Thinking about trying Ozempic, Wegovy, or Monjaro? You’re not alone. In this episode, Brooke unpacks the pros, cons, and common misconceptions around semaglutide medications for postpartum moms.
