That's Aubrey! She's 3 years old and loves gymnastics, cuddles and an occasional Zevia!
She's never had a vaccine, soda or a Tylenol...and she can eat the same diet as everyone else in our family - which ensures that she stays satiated and doesn't cave to hunger, all the while keeping her hormones in check!
If you’re attempting to lose weight, the first thing you need to realize is that you must undergo a caloric deficit. That means you need to burn more calories than you consume. (By reading this, don’t misquote me as being an advocate of low-calorie foods.)
Living in a caloric deficit doesn’t mean you have to go hungry.
Let me explain…
A calorie is a slick term for “energy.” Energy in, energy out. Take in too much energy, and you’re going to store the excess as fat and diminish muscle.
The calorie controversy arises when people start going on extremely low-calorie (or no carb) diets. They lose weight super fast, feel like shit, give in to hunger and overeat like an alcoholic binges…or maybe they just feel horrible and lose nothing at all and jump right back into poor eating habits. Either way, victims throw up their hands and insist that low-calorie diets don’t work.
This obviously wouldn't work for Aubrey. And it fails everyone else, too!
If you choose the wrong “low” calories — or if you have an “injured metabolism” and refuse to address it — then you’re right. A diet that puts you in a caloric deficit (or carbohydrate deficit) won’t work. It will make you hungry, pissed off, and fat. That’s because your body is unable to curtail the hunger that follows calorie restriction!
A healthy body has numerous ways to curb hunger, just like a sick and obese body has numerous ways to signal false feelings of hunger! Therefore, you can call your diet whatever you want. But to make it work, you must ensure that you learn how to exist in a caloric deficit without raging hunger…And that’s all about hormones.
