Summary

It’s time to break the skinny latte “healthy” snack trap that’s boosting your hunger, increasing fat, and interfering with your sleep. Living with poor health is hard. Prioritizing your sleep, eating healthy and getting enough exercise for your body everyday is hard too. Either way is hard and JJ Virgin is here to remind you, it’s also time you choose your hard. JJ Virgin is a legend in the health and nutrition industry with multiple bestselling books like the Virgin Diet, and more. When it comes to being healthy and feeling like the best version of you, JJ delivers practical advice anyone can follow. Her message today boils down to prioritizing yourself and not beating yourself up for misinformation. In this episode, JJ is busting diet myths and revealing exactly why women need to shift from losing weight to holding onto and building muscle instead. If you’re tired of the thousand moments of hopelessness, hormones out of balance, and fat that won’t budge no matter what you do, this conversation is exactly what you needed today. We wish it was as simple as calories in and calories out, but it’s not. Losing fat is a byproduct of getting healthy and your metabolic health is the key.  Women of Impact Podcast is sponsored by GrowthDay Network: https://growthday.com/podcasts FREE 4-Part Confidence Workshop: https://bit.ly/3fZcbO5 Get my book Radical Confidence NOW: https://www.radicalconfidence.com/UDX497 Follow JJ Virgin: Website: https://jjvirgin.com/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/jjvirginvideos  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jj.virgin/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JJVirginOfficial/  Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ask-the-health-expert/id911502027 Are You Ready for EXTRA Impact?
