The hosts break down the five steps of building habit ladders, which include identifying the goal action, breaking it down into stages, making it easy, progressing the habit, and staying consistent. They advise starting with achievable steps and gradually progressing towards more complex habits. Setting reminders, creating routines, and removing obstacles can help make the habit easier to achieve. They emphasize the need for patience and consistency in habit formation.

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy discuss recent studies that break down the key components to not only losing weight, but keeping it off and maintaining long-term health.

It turns out it is not just the method that matters, but we must make a few key adjustments during our weight loss journey in order to protect ourselves from weight regain.   https://academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/82/1/222S/4863393 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/17482631.2020.1862481#   Have a question you'd like us to answer?

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy break down the research on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a key component early in the overweight, obesity, and eventually diabetes processes. There was a low fat craze several decades ago, and some of the misinformation that was spread still lingers today about dietary fat leading to fatty deposits in the liver. This process is actually caused by certain sugars. They discuss effective ways to prevent and reverse NAFLD and other related outcomes.   Cai H, Qin YL, Shi ZY, et al.

The data shows that we significantly underreport our calories and that even long-term "diet resistant" subjects have perfectly functioning metabolisms, but aren't creating the calorie deficit they think they are when dieting.

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy discuss the question posed by a listener in regards to cholesterol rising during fasting. The data points to a short-term spike in cholesterol and triglycerides during the first 24 hours of fasting, followed by a substantial decrease over the following 10 weeks, when using an alternate day fasting protocol. The implications are encouraging for anyone looking for cardioprotective effects and seeking to lower cardiovascular risk factors.   https://www.nature.com/articles/srep07561 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5486142/ https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1038/oby.2010.54 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23220077/ https://faseb.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1096/fasebj.31.1_supplement.786.30   Show Transcript: www.thefastingforlife.com/blog   If you enjoy the podcast, would you please tap on the stars below and consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy discuss encouraging scientific findings that point to actual long-term reversal of blood sugar imbalances and full-blown diabetes. The "management" of blood sugar disease processes simultaneously acknowledges and ignores the possibility of reversal through weight loss, due to extremely low success rates through standard caloric deficit dieting.

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy have a candid discussion about how habits can slip over time and results can slow. Success leaves clues, but sometimes it takes a while to realize we haven't made progress in a while. A bit of self-reflection leads them to a framework for jump-starting a change. Perceive. Realizing there's a problem and it’s not fixing itself based on current habits. This can take a while, as excuses are easy to cover up and explain away the problem for a while. Decide. Making the choice that the change begins right now, because there’s no other solution. Not waiting until after the weekend. Right now. Plan. Filling in the blanks for which behaviors and standards will change (now) and what that looks like day-to-day. “I don’t care about the work meeting this week, I’m drinking lemon water.” Tuesday night dinner is tacos and I love them, so I’ll be cleaning the closet and gutters.” Execute.

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy shine a light on a new interpretation of old data. They examine a study that reveals there is a fat free component of adipose (fat) tissue, which could actually mean that many previous studies examining diet and fat loss effects on lean skeletal muscle tissue may have incorrectly interpreted their findings.

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy dive into one of the main reasons why people say they have "tried" fasting, dabbled with it, or had a brief experience with it and the results were just okay. Hunger is a turn-off for most people. It is something that can stop a fast in its tracks. The cephalic phase of digestion is a physiological response that is governed by the nervous system. It starts a cascade of hormones telling your brain that you are hungry. Marketing, mouthwash, and smelling the neighbor's cooking can all stimulate this process that tricks you into thinking you NEED to eat. Listen in to pick up some tips on how to push through!

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy discuss what really breaks a fast. They discuss framing your coffee and water intake without the added creamers and sweeteners. They also discuss the negative psychology surrounding the scale and the anxiety and frustration that it can cause. The past relationship with the scale can be overcome and improved when it is used as a vehicle or a tool to get results. The last main topic is framing all of this inside the thought that FASTING is not a punishment for what you ate or did the days and weeks prior as well as an upcoming life event. It is a reward for knowing where you are going and sticking to the PLAN.   Show Transcript: www.thefastingforlife.com/blog   If you enjoy the podcast, would you please tap on the stars below and consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

The conversation in the episode dives into the "hyperinsulinemic syndrome," which is a broad category that encompasses many metabolic and disease processes. Obvious as with Type II diabetes, there is a direct link to insulin and blood sugar related issues. The indication, however, is that insulin is linked to many other conditions such as atherosclerosis, PCOS, sleep apnea, elevated triglycerides, and cardiovascular diseases. True health is in the prevention of disease and not the management of it. By removing the source of the problem we can achieve better lives through improved long-term health.  https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24962189/   Show Transcript: www.thefastingforlife.com/blog   If you enjoy the podcast, would you please tap on the stars below and consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

Tommy was his guide, strategically putting together a day-to-day plan that was simple, actionable, and allowed for the integration of “lifestyle design” into the transformation process.

In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy discuss seizing control in everyday situations, which is especially important during unpredictable times. Intermittent fasting and extended fasting create immediate control throughout the day. They talk about routines and how controlling what is within your reach will help you be a leader and a source of stability to those around you. Fasting trims away obligations and never-ending calorie counting in favor of fewer, simpler decisions that are much easier to commit to and maintain. A sense of control can be cultivated by learning from history and knowing that cycles are a natural part of life. They remind listeners that simplifying one's daily life means less to worry about and lower anxiety levels during downturns, even as most other people are fearing the worst. Fasting automatically makes daily life simpler and lowers fears of food shortages, unscheduled interruptions to meal timing, and having to adjust complicated meal plans due to specific food availability.   Show Transcript: www.thefastingforlife.com/blog   If you enjoy the podcast, would you please tap on the stars below and consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?
