About this episode
Is it better to cut fat or cut carbs for weight loss? We get the definitive answer! Dr. Vanita Rahman and dietitian Karen Smith join "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to weigh the pros and cons of low-fat and low-carb diets to determine which is healthiest and which is best for keeping the weight off for good! Dr. Rahman and Karen also answer questions from listeners: - Can regaining weight after the keto diet make it harder to lose weight in the future? - Can carbs boost metabolism and speed up weight loss? - Do zero-calorie sweeteners make it harder to lose weight? - Does eating pasta cause you to gain weight? - How much fat should you eat? - And more! Also, Chuck speaks with Plant Fit Meg about her incredible weight loss success. But losing 80 pounds was only part of her health transformation. Meg is also a cancer survivor who was able to overcome chronic pain, endometriosis and fatigue to regain her life after switching to a plant-based diet! Now, she's using her story to inspire others to take charge of their own health! — — — Weight Loss Class https://wghtloss.cc/pcrmclass — — — Dr. Vanita Rahman Simply Plant Based Cookbook: https://amzn.to/3zAu4YB Instagram: @dr.vanita.rahman Twitter: @DocVanita — — — Plant-Fit Meg Instagram: @plantfitmeg YouTube: https://youtu.be/fiTdWekTTng Facebook: https://bit.ly/PlantFitMegFB — — — Karen Smith Instagram: @runsonplantsrd https://karensmithrd.com — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: @ChuckCarrollWLC Twitter: @ChuckCarrollWLC Facebook: http://wghtloss.cc/ChuckFacebook — — — Barnard Medical Center Appointments https://bit.ly/BMCtelemed 202-527-7500 — — — Physicians Committee Twitter: @PCRM IG: @PhysiciansCommittee Facebook: https://wghtloss.cc/PCRMFacebook YouTube: https://bit.ly/PCRMYouTube — — — Share the Show Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts , Spotify , or many other podcast providers.
