I recently tuned into a podcast with Jillian Michaelsâthe trainer from The Biggest Loser (possibly one of the most problematic shows to ever grace TV). I listened as she doubled down on the same old narrative: weight loss is all about motivation, eating less, and moving more. It was frustrating, especially because two respected physicians in the obesity medicine community were trying to bring a more evidence-based approach to the conversation, but it was falling on deaf ears.
As research continues to reveal, chronic obesity is a complex condition that differs significantly from simple weight management. Itâs clear that itâs time to move beyond these outdated beliefs and focus on the science shaping our understanding of obesity today. In this episode, we'll explore the latest scientific research on obesity, including how metabolic and hormonal responses to weight loss differ for those with chronic obesity, as well as the benefits of GLP-1s and GIPs that go far beyond weight loss alone.

Quotes
âI believe radically different right now than what I did five, six years ago. Every single year I'm learning new things.â
âThe biggest question I always get asked from people is, âWhen I lose the weight, am I good? Can I then just go on with my life?â and I always say, âIt's a chronic medical condition, meaning it's there for life. We can manage it, we don't have a cure.ââ
âIt's been an explosion recently of updates from long term trials and new trials that are showing ever increasing benefits of GLP-1s and GIPs.â
âIt's never been about shapeshifting. It's never been about what size you are. It's really always about health. And this is a hard shift because most people are just obsessed with what the scale number is.âAll of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

At a recent business conference, there was one quote that really struck me: "Your biggest competitor is always the status quo." This idea hit home because it applies so much to our healthâthe status quo is what keeps us stuck in old patterns, and unless we actively work to change, weâll stay right where we are.
In todayâs episode, Iâll be sharing the strategies I use with my patients to break free from that cycle, from habit stacking to small, achievable steps that lead to big results. Plus, Iâll dive into the fascinating findings from the Surmount trial on tirzepatide, which offer encouraging news for those who may not experience rapid weight loss at first. If youâre ready to take charge of your health and move beyond the status quo, this episode is for you!

Quotes
âThe biggest competitor is always the status quo.â
âTo say, âThe status quo of how I'm doing it might not be optimal, I want to do it a different wayâ requires a huge amount of energy and a huge amount of thought process change.â
âThe status quo wins unless you really work on these things.â
âThe same things usually run on autopilot. To get out of it is going to take some effort, some intentionality, setting some goals differently, making remindersâŠthere's going to have to be something that breaks that for you.â
âEveryone has this fallacy of, âI need to lose this big percentageâ all the time.ââ

As more people explore new approaches to health and weight management, intermittent fasting has become a popular option. From time-restricted eating to alternate-day fasting, the idea seems simple enough: limit eating to a set window, and youâll likely eat less overall. But for manyâespecially those dealing with Binge Eating Disorder (BED) or binge tendenciesâthe reality often looks quite different.
If it hasnât worked for you, itâs not you who failed; itâs the method thatâs failed you. In this episode, Iâm diving into when and why intermittent fasting can fall short. Tune in to learn why it may not be the best choice for everyoneâand discover more balanced, sustainable ways to nourish your body and find peace with food.

12:58 - Dr. Rentea encourages you to assess whether your current eating strategy feels sustainable and beneficial.
Quotes
âIf you are someone that at times really wants to eat larger quantities of food and you might have an âall-or-nothingâ side of you where you go from âI have to eat perfectlyâ and then âI want to eat all the thingsâ, intermittent fasting is not going to be your friend.â
âOne of the biggest things that I work on when people have binge eating disorder, it's creating balance throughout the day for them so that their blood sugars can stay stable.â
âThe best thing that's ever going to happen to some of you is just going to be to have cookies every day.â
âThe goal is not zero. The goal is less often, and the goal is that you have a plan for what to do afterward. A lot of you have no aftercare plan for when you have a binge, and that is the thing that's killing you.â
âThe most loving thing you can do after a binge the next day is to just go ahead and have your normal breakfast.â
âBe willing to change it up as often as you need to, to keep figuring out what works, to keep getting yourself results, to be willing to change things up at different stages in your life.â

In my work, Iâm always supporting people on their journey to better metabolic health, and itâs fascinating how new themes emerge each week. This week, I noticed many patients getting caught up in what I call the âvocal minority.â These are the people who share their extreme results with medicationsâoften loudly and visiblyâleading others to feel like their own experiences are "less than." This comparison can leave them discouraged and dissatisfied with their progress, as they measure themselves against these atypical stories.
In this episode, I discuss how comparing ourselves to the vocal minority can derail our progress. Instead of fixating on extreme results, I invite you to focus on your unique health journey. I'll share real patient stories that highlight steady, meaningful progress and offer practical strategies for setting realistic expectations and achieving attainable goals. Tune in for tips on shifting your mindset, empowering your health journey, and surrounding yourself with positive influences. Donât let the noise drown out your successâjoin me to discover how to prioritize what truly matters!

Knowing what to say about someoneâs weight gain or loss is simple if you follow one golden rule of modern communication: Never comment on another personâs weight. Unfortunately, not everyone gets the memo, and many of my patients and coaching clients find themselves on the receiving end of weight-related comments.
Obesity is a chronic condition thatâs visible to everyone, meaning those who live with it are likely familiar with one-liners like, âWow! I canât believe how much weight youâve lost; you look great!â or âAre you really going to eat that?â These commentsâboth positive and negativeâcan leave us feeling uneasy and unworthy.
In this episode, we explore the uncomfortable reality of unsolicited remarks about weight and their impact on our self-worth. Join me as we discuss how to challenge societal norms that prioritize body size over individual worth and how we can reclaim our power by advocating for ourselves and choosing how we respond to body talk.

We often hear questions about how quickly we can lose fat, but recently, someone flipped the script and asked me, âHow long is it going to take me to gain muscle?â
Building muscle plays a vital role in maintaining functionality, metabolic health, and quality of life.

Plus, itâs essential to understand that losing fat and gaining muscle are two completely different processes.
Join me for this week's episode, where Iâll share practical tips for optimizing muscle gain and discuss specific factors, like protein intake, that influence your progress. If you are in a stage where you want to optimize and prioritize muscle mass as a key component of your health and fitness journey, be sure to tune into these key insights on how to set yourself up for success!

When it comes to weight loss and health journeys, one thing is clear: the path is rarely a straight line. If you ask anyone who has tried to lose weight or manage their health, theyâll tell you that the bodyâs responses can be unpredictable. So when a patient recently shared their frustration at feeling hungrier after increasing their anti-obesity medication, it highlighted a common concern many people face.
In this episode, weâll explore the realities of non-linear weight loss journeys and the importance of patience with medication adjustments. We'll discuss how factors like stress and sleep can impact hunger levels, and why emotional regulation is key to navigating these challenges. Join me as I share practical tips and personal strategies to help you stay grounded, and discover how regulating your nervous system can lead to long-term success on your health journey.

Quotes
âOur body is not a robot.â - Dr. Rentea
âWe can think certain things rationally should happen, but that doesn't mean it's going to play out in that way.â - Dr. Rentea

âNo one wants to embrace the journey, but everyone wants the result. And unfortunately, if you're not going to embrace the journey, that resistance makes it a lot harder.â - Dr. Rentea

âIf people can wrap their mind around, this is not going to be a linear journey, they are a lot more calm. They stick with it. These are the patients that stick with me long term.â - Dr. RenteaAll of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Have you hit a wall in your weight loss journey or found yourself frustrated by rising hunger and stalled progress? This episode dives into the challenge of metabolic adaptationâthe point where your body resists further fat loss, typically around the six-month mark or after losing 10% of your body weight.
While the journey can feel frustrating as your body pushes back, there is a way through: experimentation. By shaking up your routines, adjusting your strategy, and embracing change, you can break through these barriers and continue making progress.
Whether you're dealing with hunger, plateaus, or boredom, this episode offers practical tips for staying on track. Tune in to discover how to fight back against metabolic adaptation and become a strategic experimenter in your weight loss journey!

Feeling stuck on your health journey? Maybe you donât even believe itâs possible to achieve the outcomes you want? Itâs easy to get bogged down by the numbers and let frustration and self-doubt take over. But hereâs what all my long-term successful patients have in common: they believed it was possible from the very beginning.
When setbacks occur or results arenât immediate, itâs normal to feel overwhelmed and question if itâs really worth it. So how do you start believing that something else *is* possible, even if youâve never achieved it before? In this episode, we dive into the power of self-belief and its impact on your health journey. Youâll learn why focusing on what you want to achieve, rather than what youâre trying to avoid, is the key to maintaining progress. Plus, we discover how shifting away from a scarcity mindset and into a more abundant outlook can unlock your potential and drive lasting successâeven when past struggles have made belief seem out of reach.

With almost one-third of Americans struggling with obesity, most of us recognize just how serious the issue is. What often gets overlooked, though, is the lesser-known connection between ADHD and obesity. In my practice, where about 60% of patients have ADD or ADHD, I see firsthand how ADHD complicates weight management. Impulsivity and erratic eating habits mean that people with ADHD may skip meals due to distraction, only to overeat later in the day, often reaching for high-calorie, quick fixes.
In this episode, Iâm joined by Dr. Mercado-Marmarosh, who has navigated her own ADHD journey and now helps others thrive with the condition. Together, we dive into how ADHD affects eating behaviors and weight management, sharing practical strategies for managing weight effectively and exploring the impact of ADHD medication on appetite. While we focus on ADHD, the insights and strategies we cover are valuable for anyone looking to enhance their relationship with food and improve weight management.

Are you giving yourself too long to achieve your metabolic health goals?
Many people believe that giving yourself more time will make the process easier, but this often leads to procrastination and frustration. Your timeframe is likely longer than it needs to be, and itâs time to collapse it. To be clear, Iâm *not* suggesting we rush fat loss itself. Instead, weâll learn how setting shorter, focused deadlines can accelerate progress and improve results.
In this episode, Iâll show you how collapsing your timeline can energize you, push you out of your comfort zone, and help you achieve more in less time. Join me to explore strategies for collapsing your timeline and making the most of each day. Plus, weâll cover key questions to shift you into a get-it-done-today mentality!
