Are you feeling frustrated with weight loss, despite doing “all the right things”? You’re not alone—and the solution may be far simpler than you think. In this week’s episode of The Breakthrough Emotional Eating Podcast, host Kristin Jones explores how cutting out one common habit—snacking between meals—can dramatically shift your weight loss progress and relationship with food.

Kristin shares her evolution from prescribing rigid food plans to guiding clients with a more intuitive, sustainable approach rooted in real-life behavior. Drawing inspiration from naturally slim individuals who don’t obsess over dieting, she breaks down the four major reasons why eating just three nourishing meals a day—without snacks—can be a game-changer. From reclaiming control over emotional eating to activating your body’s natural fat-burning systems, this episode dives into both the mental and physiological wins that come from a no-snacking lifestyle.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why snacking may be sabotaging your weight loss without you realizing it
• How cutting snacks puts you back in control of your emotional and physical hunger
• The body’s natural fat-burning process—and how to trigger it
• How three satisfying meals a day create more intentional, balanced nutrition
• Why this habit shift is a foundational step in overcoming emotional eating
• What to look for when distinguishing real hunger from emotional cravings

Whether you’re stuck in a weight loss plateau, overwhelmed by emotional cravings, or simply tired of the all-or-nothing diet cycle, this episode will give you a grounded, doable strategy that creates clarity, consistency, and confidence around food. Tune in and learn how one simple change can spark powerful transformation.

What happens when you trade financial security for soul-fulfilling work? Pamela Pope's transformation from tech sales executive to fitness professional offers a masterclass in following your intuition despite fear and uncertainty.

In this deeply personal conversation, Pamela shares how two corporate layoffs became the catalyst for embracing her true calling in the fitness world. Though initially intimidated by the financial implications, she discovered that the ability to witness her direct impact on clients' lives provided a satisfaction that no sales commission could match. "I finally feel like I'm doing what I was meant to be doing," she reflects, capturing the essence of vocational alignment.

Fitness enthusiasts will appreciate Pamela's insights into the Legree method—a challenging Pilates-inspired workout focused on time under tension rather than flow—and how this training modality became her gateway into full-time fitness instruction. As both a personal trainer and master Legree instructor, she brings a unique perspective on sustainable health practices that prioritize long-term lifestyle changes over quick fixes.

What truly distinguishes Pamela's approach is her commitment to authenticity. Rather than positioning herself as an untouchable fitness guru, she openly shares her own struggles with food and body image, creating deeper connections with clients. This vulnerability extends to her recent participation in the Hyrox endurance competition, where despite feeling intimidated by elite athletes, she embraced being outside her comfort zone and formed meaningful community connections.

For anyone contemplating their own fitness journey, Pamela offers refreshingly practical advice: start absurdly small. Drawing from James Clear's "Atomic Habits," she advocates for micro-goals like taking a five-minute walk rather than attempting dramatic transformations that quickly fizzle out. Her philosophy centers on extending your "health span" to match your lifespan—maintaining functional independence and joy throughout your entire life.

Are you dealing with stubborn sugar cravings, belly fat that won’t budge, or unexplained muscle loss—even though you're doing "all the right things"? You’re not crazy—and you’re definitely not alone. These symptoms may be tied directly to hormonal shifts that start as early as your 30s and ramp up during perimenopause and menopause.

In this powerful episode of the Breakthrough Emotional Eating podcast, I share my personal journey with hormone replacement therapy (HRT), the latest science on protein needs for women in midlife, and simple shifts you can make today that will radically improve your energy, cravings, and body composition.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• ⚡ Why women lose up to 8% of their muscle mass every decade after 30—and how to stop the acceleration during menopause
• 🥩 Why the old protein guideline (0.8g/kg) is outdated—and what new research recommends instead (1.2–1.6g/kg daily)
• ⏰ How protein timing—especially first thing in the morning—can stabilize blood sugar and crush afternoon cravings
• 🧠 The surprising link between hormones, insulin resistance, and emotional eating
• 💪 What to eat (and when) to protect your metabolism, boost muscle retention, and feel strong for decades to come

Whether you're proactively preparing for hormonal shifts or deep in the midst of them, this episode will give you clear, actionable strategies to reclaim your health and feel empowered in your body.
