I had to leave a stressful marriage to save my health…cortisol was flatlined and adrenals were just spent. Being with a narcissistic person is tough on the body…if you are doing everything else right this may be your issue as well. Life is so much better and my body after a few years has been healed- takes a lot of time and love
I think my problem is same as you.
Thank you for sharing your story - glad to hear you are doing better ❤
Thank you for speaking to the rest of us going through the same thing ❤️
Amazing, stay strong ♥️
Was with a narcissist for 5 years and he literally sucked the souls out of me. Same thing… he needed to go for my health. In complete adrenal fatigue. I could not exercise with out getting sick. It’s been 4 years and I still don’t think my body is out of it yet. I am way better but I still have to not over do it with physical stress. I am down a good 30 plus pounds though since that ended but it took awhile.
I’m so glad I found this video. I recently went through a very stressful time in my life, was still working out, but still felt weak, and ended up gaining a lot of weight in my stomach area. I wasn’t sleeping a lot at all, fatigued, and dragging all day.
Glad it helped and I'm sorry to hear you went through a stressful time.
Thank you for your honest and straight forward approach! I just found your channel and I already am a fan!! Keep it up!!
I totally agree with you that there are so many scamsters out there. Thank you for being honest.
You are very welcome!

Very helpful. Thank you:)
You are very welcome!!
Great information!! I just started working out 2.5 months ago and am barely seeing results but trying to be patient. I feel so much better but need to work on some of the things you recommend. I am floored out how many ppl believe those quick fix/promises to reduce belly fat overnight!🤦🏻♀️ The amount of views says it all. I believe we gotta do the WORK! It won’t be easy but I KNOW it’ll be WORTH IT💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Yes!!!! Patience and Consistency will always win in the long run!! So glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful!! Keep me posted on your journey!!
Good advice.
Glad it was helpful!
You have been a game changer for me!! Went from 210 to 140 with whole30.
Unfortunately that lifestyle did not give me a positive perspective on certain foods. Foods I needed to gain muscle. I ended up with muscle injury because I wasn’t correctly feeding my body. Thank you for all of your videos. It has helped me regain a better relationship with food, and knowledge I need to get back on tack.
Amazing Tonya!!! So happy you are finding my videos helpful to build a healthier relationship with food!!
Great video!!! Could you do a video on gut health, i am following your your advice mentioned in this video, but still have issues with IBS constipation, especially with increasing my protein… do you have any recommendations?
Hi! Glad you enjoyed the video! Yes that is a great idea for a video - I have added it to my video topic list so stay tuned in the next few weeks!
Thanks a lot Goddess
you are welcome
Thank you so much for doing the search for us and showing us that it is garbage.
You are very welcome :)
I have pcos and hormonal imbalance and with age I'm 36.. and it's getting harder to keep the belly down. I'm not hugely overweight but my stomach just carries more and more every couple years
Ty for this!!! 🎉❤ do you have a workout program to follow using weights???

Menopause is the cause of my tummy. I’m slim all over and fit. I tried smaller sized meals and stomach muscle exercises and that helped but I think it needs a long time to reduce the fat.
Check out this video I did on Menopause here: th-cam.com/video/9HM-2RDNwv8/w-d-xo.html
Would love to get 7-9 hours of sleep but I keep waking up earlier than I want too. What has worked for me is eating more protein vs carb and fat. And sometimes I use I.F. And I have been more active and am getting outside more and lifting weights. I lead day off with eggs or yogurt. You need to build more muscle. The types of calories u ingest matter bc they impact hormones differently and the refined carbs are super-addictive vs whole foods. Need to get good protein. Definitley try and remove refined carbs and refined oils. The stress reduction is tough if working for a company that demands a lot in a short period of time. And you need to an meals and try and not bring cookies into the house. Hey, I am not perfekt and still have addictions. Thx food industry.
Sleeping 6-8 hours to me it’s impossible right now.. I have 3 small kids who don’t like to sleep lol.. I haven’t slept seven or even six hours straight since I had my first daughter five and half years ago. Having two kids in two years didn’t help lol But I’m eating on a calorie deficit and I started working out again so hopefully I’ll start seeing a difference soon in my waist.. I already lost 12 pounds just with eating clean.. I’m 4’11 109lbs
Love your videos! Thanks for all the info
Congrats on your weight loss so far Paula!! So glad you are enjoying my videos!! PS. I totally get the sleep thing lol I have a 4 1/2 year old and a 2 year old lol …. I always say just do your best to make sleep a priority when you can 😂💪🏻👌🏼
109 pounds is very small.. don't need to lose anymore..you'd disappear 😂
What do you think about potassium and magnesium citrate?
Great video. #newsub I'm just starting to research reduce Insulin
Great!! So glad you found the video helpful and thanks for the sub!!
I've been struggling with hormonal belly after I got on birth control. I've been trying to get it out. But I've felt like I have to cover myself up and I just want to in brace myself.
I'm a year late, but wow thank you for being real❤
You are very welcome!
I walk between 4-8 miles a day I break it up morning and evening. I do strength train 4-5x a day
Great job!!!
Symptoms of hypothyroidism too
Do you offer a program for a 71 year old woman who is in good health to lose lower belly fat?
What about when your cortisol is low? I had high cortisol symptoms for a while and then things got worse, when I got tested I actually have very low cortisol. And shot adrenals.
I find lifting weights relaxing also and I really enjoy it but I was told doing it to much could stress my body and raise cortisol. Is that very likely?
Yes I also find it as a stress relief, too much meaning like 6-7 days per week heavy with no recovery days or rest could increase cortisol, but as long as you are recovering properly and allowing for rest days you should be fine :)
I need sleep 😴 I work the night shift and even if I get 6-7 hrs I still feel tired. Been on night shift for 4 years now and each year I’ve only gained, 5 lbs a year. Trying to keep this year from the gain.
Yes night shifts are tough, try your best to drink water and plan healthy meals and snacks to eat during your night shifts if you can.
how does 80/20 look like? eat good for the week and not in the weekend?? idk just asking
Along with cortisol, wouldn't insulin resistance also cause stubborn belly fat? Can you do a video on this, too?
Yes, you are correct.
What about cardio?
I do 20 min of HIIT on my mini trampoline plus 45 minutes of weight training 3 days a week. Then I do 1 hour of dance class twice a week on other days. And then do active rest like walking the other days.
I find that doing HIIT and weight training on same day has sky rocketed my appetite. However I noticed belly fat seemed to melt like butter despite eating more
Ive heard someone who claimed to be a professional say that exercising more and eating less doesnt really help with cortisol levels but only makes it worse, however, based on my own research it seems like exercising did indeed help alot ot people, any opinion on this?
SHOULD I BE CONSUMING MY PROTEIN BASED ON THE BALANCE RATIO (like 40%P & C and 20%F) … OR… DO I STICK TO PROTEIN AT 1g/lb? I ask because these numbers are veryyyy different because I am releasing a lot of body fat.
Hi Faith if you are currently losing a lot of body fat, keep doing what you are doing as it's working and don't worry too much about the numbers. I always recommend trying to hit the 1g of protein per day as a starting point then try to hit the other macro percentages once you are hitting your protein goal regularly. I hope this helps!
Hi Mechelle, I checked my cortisol level and it is low during the day and high at night. What should I do?
I had this during a very stressful time in my life. My naturopath said to get out for a nice walk; not too fast; in the early am. Rain or shine. Early daylight is huge. Only 1 cup of coffee in morning. Also afternoon or evening walk or after dinner if possible. Eating dinner 3 hours before bedtime with a serving of complex carbs.
Evening routines that you find relaxing. I took Epsom salt baths some evenings; reading; gardening; cup of herbal tea few hours before bed; I used lavender essential oils on bottoms of my feet before bed; dark room; no phone / iPad use unless listening to things that relax; try to go to bed same time every evening. My naturopath put me on ashwaganda , Maca; and b12 for my adrenal fatigue. Also; lowering stress wherever possible. For me it was toxic work environment; and being in a very narcissistic relationship; and being a single mom of many kids, working 3 jobs and mainting their lifestyle / activities etc. Really being kind to yourself; and doing things that fills your cup putting yourself as a priority. Hugs ❤
I lost my husband of 20 years in a really bad automobile accident on November 16th 2021. We had been together since we were 12 years old he was my best friend for 32 years. I assume my cortisol levels are completely out of control because I have lost literally over half of my hair and I don't know if grief has anything to do with cortisol levels but I'm falling apart, I can't lose weight, I'm not eating, I get plenty of sleep and my hair is just falling out. How do you reduce cortisol levels when you're grieving?
Hello I'm so very worry to hear about your husband, I can't even imagine what you are going through. My best advice is give yourself the time to grieve and start small. If you are not eating right now, start by starting to eat small meals through the day with mainly whole foods. Find a form of movement that you enjoy even if it's just walking, start by walking once a day and listening to a podcast or yoga etc... Focus on the basic healthy habits like sleep, drinking water, eat more fruits and veggies, and move your body when you can :) I hope this helps and my heart goes out to you
Trauma (traumatic grief) can affect the physical body. Some of my friends have gotten breakthrough in their physical health by going to a trauma counselor- I will pray for you.
There is a program called Grief Share that may be helpful to you. Please Google it. Praying for you. ❤
If you eat 1600 calories per day and you burn 600 calories at the gym per day, did you really consume 1000 calories per day?
I just want to thank you for just being real because watching these videos about reducing benefit it's a joke
You are very welcome!
👍👍
👍
How do you tone up the triceps and lose that hang in the arms?
You can’t spot reduce - but building lean muscle through strength training and eating in a calorie deficit to decrease body fat will help 👌🏼
Well sleep part isn’t going to work. I’m forced to be on a cpap machine to keep my job. The cpap causes much stress and bad sleep. I’m tired every day now. I have told the doctors but they don’t listen. Honestly I’m starting to believe my only way off of it is to die. Because I’m not changing careers.
Hello, I'm sorry to hear this; however, with that being said sleep is only one of the factors that could be affecting belly fat. Adding more movement to your day, strength training, eating more protein and clean nutrient dense foods can also help even if sleep isn't as good as you would like :) I hope this helps!
Do you think intermittent fasting helps weight loss? Eating window of 8 hours?
It can work as long as it is something you can do for a long time and is sustainable. As long as you are still getting your calories and proteins within your eating window 👌🏼💪🏻
Thank you🙏
I’m trying to burn fat by walking 30 minutes a day and I’m drinking lemon water every day
Awesome!
What if your a guy , is it the same.
Yes for sure!
Hahha people are crazy. I want to lose in 1 week too. 🤣
lol!
Buuuuuuuut, how do I lose my lil belly and gain muscle? I’m confused about calorie surplus for muscle but deficient to lose the fat.
I’m skinny with a belly. Muscular from weight training but get comments on being too skinny but yet I look pregnant
Hey Valerie...hmmm a lot of possibilities here, are you tracking your protein intake? Do you lift and do cardio or only lift? Do you feel bloated? possible you have a food intolerance? How much water do you drink? Lot's of reasons why this could be happening. Check out my video on body recomp macros and calories and compare that to what you are currently doing? I hope this helps!
People are promoting such bullshit it’s sad
It really is crazy and drives me crazy!
@@MichelleRoots Then they throw in "with a healthy diet and exercise...".
I watch all these videos really it’s scam
Yes it's crazy to me how many views they have....
