This week we're pulling apart why so many women gain weight the moment they add carbs back, what's actually water and glycogen (not fat), and the genuinely mind-boggling reason your beliefs about carbs might be changing how your body physically responds to them. If you've been scared of rice, this one's for you.

IN THIS EPISODE WE CHAT:

  • Why you can't touch your carbs without looking at the rest of your macros first (the step almost everyone skips)
  • The three things that can happen when you add carbs back, and why only one of them is actually a problem
  • The "puffy and fluffy" feeling explained: what that water is really doing, and why it's making you look tighter, not softer
  • Why the scale creeping up for three to five days is completely normal, and the exact moment most women panic and undo all their progress
  • The study where people were lied to about their carbs, and how their blood sugar responded worse anyway (yes, from belief alone)
  • The uncomfortable truth about how a decade of "carbs are bad" self-talk can quietly make you less carb tolerant
  • The client who swore she felt puffier after carbs, while her weight and biofeedback said the exact opposite
