Ep 63. Reverse Dieting — How I Built My Calories Up to 2700 and Stayed Lean
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You've been dieting for months. You're tired, your calories feel low, your progress has stalled — and the idea of eating more feels terrifying. What if I told you that eating more food, done the right way, could actually be the thing that gets you leaner?
In this episode I'm breaking down reverse dieting — what it is, why it works, when to do it, and how I personally built my own calories up to 2700 and stayed lean through the whole process.
You'll learn:
- What reverse dieting actually is and why it's not the same as quitting your diet
- How your metabolism adapts to long periods of dieting — and how to reverse that
- Why jumping straight to maintenance after a diet phase can backfire but also when you should do it
- The body recomposition changes most women experience when they start eating more
- How to implement a reverse diet in a way that feels manageable — mentally and physically
This episode might completely change the way you think about food, your metabolism, and what your body is actually capable of. 💚
