Today, we’re diving into a topic that so many of you have struggled with… cutting carbs in an attempt to lose weight. 🙋🏻♀️ (Yep, I had both my hands up too!)
For years, we’ve been told that carbs are the enemy… that if we just cut out bread, pasta, or rice, the weight would magically fall off. And while you might see the scale drop at first, what you don’t see is the toll it takes: the cravings, the fatigue, the frustration, and eventually... the weight regain.
In this episode, I’m breaking down:
- Why cutting carbs can wreck your energy, metabolism, and hormones (especially if you’re 35+).
- The truth about "quick weight loss" (hint: it’s mostly water weight at first!).
- How low-carb diets can actually stall your fat loss and lead to binge eating cycles.
- Why carbs are NOT the enemy — they are your secret weapon when eaten the right way!
- The best types of carbs to include for sustainable weight loss, steady energy, better workouts, and a happier, more vibrant YOU.
If you’ve ever felt tired, cranky, and frustrated after trying to go low-carb, this episode will feel like a big warm hug and a reality check all rolled into one.
You can eat carbs, feel amazing in your body, and lose weight… sustainably and without the endless cycle of restriction and regain. I’ll show you how inside today’s episode.
