Check out my FREE 7 day meal plan here: https://thedoctorskitchen.com/newsletter On todays episode I chat with friend of the podcast, Dr Nick Fuller from University of Sydney about everything to do with sustainable weight loss including why losing just 5% of your body weight triggers a cascade of processes that slows your metabolism and ultimately leads to weight gain. We discuss calories in, calories out and a broader view on energy balance, protein requirements and the important practices you need to know about to prevent visceral fat accumulation. We also discuss the potential impact of ozempic and other drugs in this class of medications and how we should be approaching any intervention that leads to weight loss. Dr Nick leads the research team within the Charles Perkins Centre at the University of Sydney which focuses on the physical and mental health disorders associated with obesity. His research has been published in The Lancet and JAMA, and his team provide independent clinical analysis of emerging products and technology for the treatment of obesity and associated illness and disease. ________________________________________________________________________ CHAPTERS: Timecodes: 00:00 - #1 reason people cant lose weight 05:30 - The most important thing to know about visceral fat 14:31 - What exercise should you focus on 20:56 - What you NEED to know about weight loss 42:21 - What protein targets should you aim for? 49:40 - How important is energy balance? 59:10 - Pro's and con's of interval weight loss and intermittent fasting 1:09:40 - Medical tools for healthy weight loss 1:22:00 - Personalised nutrition ________________________________________________________________________ FOR MORE INFORMATION FROM Dr Nick Fuller: https://www.intervalweightloss.com.au https://twitter.com/drnickfuller https://www.facebook.com/intervalweightloss/?ref=settings https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE1PVJsJQIOmoLh94CxPIxg ________________________________________________________________________ EAT WELL EVERYDAY 📱 Download the Doctor's Kitchen app for free here: https://apple.co/3La17ce 🥗 Download a FREE 7 day meal plan: https://thedoctorskitchen.com/newsletter/ 🔥 Learn about Inflammation in my 4 part mini-series here: https://thedoctorskitchen.com/lp/inflammation-series LEARN FROM THE BEST 🎤 Listen to experts on the podcast: https://thedoctorskitchen.com/podcasts 👨🏽‍💻 Browse articles on the website: www.thedoctorskitchen.com MY COOKBOOKS 📚 https://thedoctorskitchen.com/books/ LET'S BE FRIENDS 📷 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/doctors_kitchen/ 📹 Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDHTLhQbYlFnPBv-iLgFsQQ 🙋🏽‍♂️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedoctorskitchen 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/doctors_kitchen 👔 https://www.linkedin.com/in/rupy-aujla/
