444: Losing Weight & Keeping It Off | GLP-1 & Real-World Experience - Christle Guevarra

[@dr.christle]

Thank you so much for the invite Steve! ❤

[@dusan78]

I experienced exactly the same hunger you describe, being full yet so hungry and always thinking about food. What fixed it was going carb free and being on keto/carnivore style diet. This was 15 years ago before it was popular. I lost 100+lbs and never felt hungry. Now, whenever I eat carbs, it's like a drug, I want and can eat more and more. Have you ever tried not eating carbs before you went on GLP-1?

[@EarthsSaviour]

Thank you Dr Christle! Lovely to hear from Mike’s ‘better’ half as Steve put it 😆

[@APDFitnessWellness]

@@EarthsSaviour Haha, yup.

[@LyndonEA]

yay Dr Christle

[@kimdecker8901]

Dr. Christle's always seemed like such a lovely, gracious person--and like such a private one. (Kudos to her for that!) Any chance we get to hear from her is a must-listen occasion. Thank you for having her on, Steve! And thank you, Dr. Christle, for being a shining light!🙌💪

[@paulwitt8186]

Great interview. Dr Christle is a perfectly flawed individual. She is so relatable. The fitness industry needs more people like her. I’m glad she is getting herself out there more. Her real life battle with weight loss combined with her medical training really make her an authority on GLP-1 medications.

[@JulsWellnessWarrior]

So appreciate Dr Christle’s honesty and transparency. Her stories resonate with me with the insatiable hunger and always thinking about food. Being an athlete my whole life it never made sense” to me and I was always fighting myself until I too started a GLP-1 in 2022.Changed my life, lost 50lb and changed my brain and my body signals. Sharing my own story and maintenance on my YT channel to help others💕

[@APDFitnessWellness]

It's nice to see Dr. Christle in front of the camera more these days. Always good advice and fun to listen to.

I went from 229 to 283 during COVID. Had to work 56 hours a week schedule 6 days a week, then whatever came up. Gyms all closed. They didn't want people wandering around in groups outside. I was eating crap and not able to work out tired as hell. That period really sucked. I was so happy to go back to the gym. I'm still working on getting the weight back off to get back down to 230 or so.

[@tommylarnefeldt7671]

Keep at it💪

[@user-ii7xc1ry3x]

Dr Christle's here? No waaaay

We got Dr. Christle before we got GTA 6

😂😂😂😂

[@regenesis5055]

I really resonate with her experience with dieting. I am losing and gaining back the same 10 kg for more than 20 years now, with about 30% bf. Beside the food focus, every time I diet it takes only weeks until my sleep gets disturbed, I lose my patience and get agitated easily.

[@johnlexus1]

How many cals are you cutting? And are you exercising more?

[@regenesis5055]

@johnlexus1 Unfortunately, I already follow the general rules and only cut 500 cals on average (lower on rest days, higher on training days - works best for my strength). I do the same volume and even lower it, when my recovery gets worse. For cardio, last time I dieted, I only did steps...and not even many. Maybe, I should cut on even less of a deficit, but that would impede my motivation.

[@cindyb100]

Love her! Ty for speaking on such a misunderstood topic ❤

[@zaybx]

Much more similar to my situation than most people. Eating an entire cabbage every day to try to be full. You probably don't have to ask how the people close to you feel about that. The knowing that you ate the correct amount of food, being uncomfortably full, and yet still wanting to eat even completely unappetizing things is a crushing burden.

[@theodorabasmatzi6262]

such a humble and honest woman! great discussion

[@Blindfold-Me]

For me head hunger is hell. I grew up in poverty and a scarcity mindset around food.

[@medved0987]

Excited for the podcast!

[@dominiquewiedeck4383]

Telling someone who has struggled their entire life with weight loss/maintenance to just try harder is like telling someone with ADHD to just stop thinking that you have a choice. That food noise is just in your head, “yeah no fk shit”

[@imsorrythankyouplease7613]

I know the feeling in the thumbnail. Before I knew anything, I tried a potato only diet. No butter, no salt, nothing. I had 3 and my stomach was so full but it wasn’t enough calories. I badly wanted butter, ice cream, and chips, but anything that wasn’t calorie dense made me want to chunder.

[@younusimam-thesalamproject6340]

To feel more full, i now have my protein shakes differently: i put it in the glass of water and eat most of it with a fork, it becomes a pudding, then i drink the rest. This way i feel a lot more full than just a protein shake. Great convo on the djfficulties of many for dieting.

[@mikecartier6163]

To feel more full eat real food not shakes.

[@younusimam-thesalamproject6340]

@mikecartier6163 it's not always a convenient option.

[@mikecartier6163]

@@younusimam-thesalamproject6340 eggs, ground beef, tuna, ya super inconvenient.

[@jaghad]

Protein shakes are definitely not food. Also, dairy protein is not filling. It is made out of milk. Milk is something babies drink to grow. The whole point with dairy is to consume enough to grow. I like milk and drink a lot of it, but it is not filling. Eat meat, eggs and fish and preferably fatty cuts of meat and fatty fish. Women are notoriously bad at eating red meat. That should be most of what you eat. Fatty cuts of red meat. Also, cut out all carbs. They are non essential and tend to make you overeat.

[@TheNietzschian]

@@jaghad bro what are you saying lmfao. This was unintelligible nonsense.

[@Siegbert85]

So... Mike Israetel is not gay?

[@George-Aguilar]

Whoa!

The statement in the thumbnail hit so hard that I had to click on the video.

[@stephensimon7621]

there is no doubt that people have bio issues like christle but we have to address obesity has exploded in the last 50 yrs, somthing in our environment is problematic. while this can be a bandaid but we need to adress the global cause. I do believe somthing in our environment is messing with our hormones making it very difficult to restrict calories.

[@DrDeusExMachina]

Mike is quickly becoming the most overrated person the industry

[@mikecartier6163]

Theres 2 types of people. Those who control their minds and not put the excess food in their mouths. And those who cant control their minds and put extra foods in their mouths.

[@caelanjb]

This is also nonsense
