In today's episode, I'm going to share with you some amazing case studies from women who were struggling with fat loss plateau even though they were eating low calories and worked out a lot. I'm also going to share with you what we did so that they got a lot better, increased calories, and lost body fat.

You will see that it is possible to increase your metabolic rate by several hundred calories which heals your body and makes fat loss possible again.
Eating Too Little For Too Long Is The Reason For Fat Loss Resistance
All these women whose stories I share on this episode, were eating way under their needs. Some of them ate even 1000-1200 calories before we got started. Some of them did 4 day fasts when they didn't eat anything at all. Others cut out all carbs. It all came down to the same thing — extreme calorie restriction.
They all had to speed up their metabolism to start seeing the body change they wanted because this extreme calorie restriction was the exact reason why they were stuck.
How To Burn 750 Calories More and Not Gain Fat
Check out the numbers to see how much more these women are eating now while maintaining or even improving their look. They're eating 450-750 calories MORE. And they all eat carbs which again proves the point that there is no need to cut out carbs or go on a very restricted carbohydrate diet if you want to lose fat. In fact, I argue that carbs are necessary for most women for a healthy metabolic function.
This is possible when you increase your calories steadily and gradually, the way I teach inside Metabolic Reset.
Other Benefits Of Faster Metabolism
You may think that being able to lose fat is the most important thing and the main reason why one would want to speed up their metabolism. But there's a lot more. All these women have experienced great gains in other areas as well.
What you don't see here is that each one of them is feeling tons better, many have better hormonal balance, less cravings, better sleep and better mood.
Your Metabolism Is Doing Exactly What You're Telling It To Do
If you think that your metabolism is not working when you hit fat loss resistance and get convinced that there's something wrong with you, it's not true. You may hate to read this but… Your metabolism is doing exactly what it's supposed to be doing.
When we eat 1200 calories, we create a 1200 calorie metabolism which then fights hard against burning any of it.
It's simply trying to keep you alive and this is not a place to burn anything extra.
When your metabolism slows down to the point where it now burns barely any energy and in fact, may be preserving energy (=weight and fat gain), the reason is usually over dieting.
Good news: When you start eating a bit more, it will speed up again and can start burning calories again which is exactly what these women did!
“But Eating More Is Scary!”
“But Kersten, eating more food is scary! I'm going to blow up!” — did you just say that?
I'm reading your mind. It does not have to be like this. Here's your evidence, on these three pictures that you saw in the video. Because how you’re doing it is key. Do it gradually, exactly the way I teach you inside Metabolic Reset, and you will see great results!
