Metabolic Adaptation Explained: Why Your Body Stalls After Long-Term Dieting

Marisa Silva and Vanessa Silva Season 1 Episode 136

In this episode, we’re talking about something almost every chronic dieter has felt but rarely gets explained well: metabolic adaptation. It’s the real reason your body can stall after months or years of dieting.

If you’ve ever eaten less, trained more, and still wondered why nothing was changing, this episode will finally make it make sense. We go into what’s actually happening inside your metabolism, why progress slows down even when you’re doing everything “right,” and what it takes to rebuild a body that responds again.

We cover reverse dieting, building muscle, hunger cues, and how to know when you’re truly ready for a fat loss phase. This episode will help you understand your body in a way that feels clear and empowering.
