Summary

You have to lose weight to get healthy, right?  Wrong. You have to get healthy to lose weight. That’s the real secret.  If I needed to lose 20 pounds, I’d focus on my metabolic health. And in today’s episode, I’m going to explain what that means and exactly how to do it. We’re going to go deep on what it takes to restore your health, the hidden reasons your body may be resisting weight loss, and how to determine the right target weight for the way you’re built.  On top of that, I’m outlining the markers of metabolic health so you can get a better idea of where you stand, and I’ll share step-by-step methods for healing your metabolism. Plus, I’m not just saying “You need to exercise,” I’m telling you which exercises you should be doing.  If you’re looking for smart strategies for getting healthy so you can finally lose weight, you do not want to miss this episode!  Full show notes: jjvirgin.com/lose20 Watch the FULL VIDEO on my YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/jjvirginvideos Subscribe to my podcast: http://subscribetojj.com Read my book, The Sugar Impact Diet: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/books/products/sugar-impact-diet-paperback-book Learn how foods cause leaky gut in The Virgin Diet: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/the-virgin-diet-paperback Try my free protein calculator: jjvirgin.com/proteinfirst The Galveston Diet by Dr. Mary Claire Haver: https://amzn.to/44mwJoh Bioimpedance scale: https://amzn.to/44FjX3L TRX Training: Free Shipping on all orders $99+: https://www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=ml&ti=931205&pw=347877 Video: How to Make Your Workout More Effective: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqSWmbLzJFE Video: How to Burst Train the Right Way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIqPqNH0cFs Video: I Do These 6 Exercises Every Week for Strong, Toned Arms: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXA5E45o6G Carbon app: https://www.joincarbon.com/ Learn more about Dr. Donald Layman: https://metabolictransformation.com/meet-dr-donald-k-layman/ Dry Farm Wines: http://dryfarmwines.com/jjvirgin Theia continuous glucose monitor: https://join.theiahealth.ai/c/jj Reignite Wellness™ Daily Essentials Multi + Omega: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/supplements/products/daily-essentials-multi-omegas Designs for Health Creatine: https://amzn.to/3pPLGjE  Reignite Wellness™ All-In-One Shake protein powder: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/shakes Reignite Wellness™ Protein First Enzymes: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/protein-first-enzymes Learn more about your ad choices.
