A recent TikTok post of mine stirred up some serious controversy—people are freaking out over whether "starvation mode" is real. So let’s break it down.
🔥 The Debate:Haters are saying that calorie deficit is the ONLY way to lose fat and that starvation mode doesn’t exist. And they’re not entirely wrong… but they’re also missing a huge part of the picture.
🔥 The Reality:Yes, you need to be in a calorie deficit to lose body fat. BUT your body is smart and built for survival. So, if you’re under-eating for too long, your metabolism slows down to conserve energy.
🚨 Why This Matters:A sluggish metabolism means:✅ You burn fewer calories✅ Fat loss plateaus✅ You feel exhausted, inflamed, bloated, and hungry✅ Your hormones, digestion, and mental health take a hit
