Trying Everything to Lose Weight? These 5 Things Matter More Than You Think

EP368 with Dr. Mindy Pelz
You’re exercising more, fasting more, changing what you eat, and trying everything you know to support your weight, and yet the scale still doesn’t seem to move.
In this solo episode, Dr. Mindy breaks down five foundational habits she wants you to look at before assuming your body simply isn’t responding. She explores how fibre-rich foods can support satiety and your gut microbiome, why walking after meals can benefit blood sugar, how meal timing interacts with your circadian rhythm, and why sleep and consistency deserve a much bigger place in the weight-loss conversation.
She also explores GLP-1, food noise, nervous system state, and what research tells us about maintaining weight loss after stopping GLP-1 medications.
The takeaway is refreshingly practical: instead of chasing another complicated strategy, start by looking at the everyday rhythms you can actually repeat.
