  • Why Counting Calories Causes Weight Gain

    Why Counting Calories Causes Weight Gain
    Jan 26 2026
    If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of dieting, obsessing over calories, or feeling guilty after eating, this is for you.I am sharing about the shift that changes everything: moving from calorie counting to hormone-focused self-care. I’ll unpack why your mood, sleep, environment, and interactions matter as much—if not more—than the numbers on a plate.1. Why Behavior Trumps CaloriesIn my Calm the Cravings and Break the Cycle masterclasses, people always ask me about hormones. While I do touch on cortisol and insulin briefly, the real shift comes when you start noticing how your choices throughout the day affect your hormones—from the food you eat to the people you spend time with, the environments you’re in, and even your sleep and mood.Instead of tracking calories, I encourage you to pay attention to how your body feels and how your emotions guide you. These are signals from your nervous system, pointing to what’s really going on above the shoulders.2. Meet Your Master Hormone: CortisolMost advice online focuses on carbs, sugar, or fat—but hardly anyone talks about cortisol, your master hormone.I explain how cortisol:Releases anytime you’re in protection modeSlows metabolism and triggers cravingsBlocks rational thinking, making it harder to resist emotional eatingAffects insulin, thyroid, estrogen, and moreChronic high cortisol can create weight gain, PMS, menopausal symptoms, water retention, and the sense that nothing you do works—even when you’re trying your best.3. Your Environment & Mindset MatterWhere you work, who you spend time with, and how you think daily influence your hormones more than diets ever could.I’ve learned that:Negative self-talk and perfectionism constantly trigger cortisolYoga, meditation, or exercise alone can’t fix your nervous system if your thoughts keep firing stress signalsThe key is regulating your nervous system and adjusting your environment4. My JourneyI got into health and fitness after chronic back pain and a car accident at 16. Exercise healed me, and I fell in love with movement. But the fitness world led me into a maze of diets—calorie counting, keto, paleo, low-fat, macros—ending in secret bingeing and guilt.The real breakthrough came when I stopped punishing myself with food and exercise and started focusing on hormone regulation, nervous system balance, and emotional awareness. That’s when lasting change happened.5. The Big TakeawayStop obsessing over food numbers.Pay attention to how your choices affect your nervous system and hormones.Listen to your cravings and emotions—they’re signals, not failures.Small shifts in your thoughts and environment can create massive changes in energy, weight, and mood.Health and weight release start above the shoulders. Once your nervous system and hormones are balanced, everything else falls into place.Book your FREE 30-minute Food Freedom Call now and start your journey to lasting change!

  • How Your Nervous System Reacts to Triggers & Dysregulated Emotions

    How Your Nervous System Reacts to Triggers & Dysregulated Emotions
    Jan 22 2026

    Have you ever wondered why, no matter how hard you try, you keep falling into the same food and emotional patterns? If you feel stuck in cycles of emotional eating, self-sabotage, or using food for comfort or distraction, this episode is for you.

    In this episode, I dive deep into one of the most powerful forces shaping your relationship with food and your behaviors: your triggers. These patterns aren’t accidents or a lack of willpower—they’re deeply ingrained programs in your mind and nervous system. And the good news? They can be recognized, understood, and transformed.

    We explore how triggers exist in all five senses—smells, sounds, tastes, sights, and touch—and how they activate dysregulated emotions that feel hard or impossible to sit with. These emotions aren’t weaknesses; they’re signals from your nervous system shaped by past experiences, conditioning, and unmet emotional needs.

    I break down the difference between protection mode and safety mode, and why your nervous system state plays a massive role in emotional eating, weight loss resistance, and habit change. This is the missing piece most diets never address.

    You’ll learn:

    • Why emotional eating is an automatic response, not a personal failure

    • How triggers activate unconscious thoughts, beliefs, and coping behaviors

    • Why awareness alone begins to unravel patterns

    • How learning to sit with emotions retrains your nervous system

    • Practical steps to gently interrupt old patterns without judgment

    This episode will help you see that your food choices and habits are deeply linked to how safe your body feels—not discipline or willpower.

    Awareness is your superpower. Once you can see the “movie” of your triggers, you can pause, choose differently, and begin rewiring patterns that no longer serve you. Healing happens step by step, with patience, self-compassion, and curiosity—and your next decision is the one that shapes your transformation.

  • Sugar Isn't The Problem, This Hormone Is! Here's What Most People Don't Know

    Sugar Isn't The Problem, This Hormone Is! Here's What Most People Don't Know
    Jan 19 2026

    If you’re fighting cravings and blaming your willpower, this episode reframes everything you’ve been taught about food and self-control.Cravings are not a discipline problem — they’re biology. Sugar isn’t the enemy. Dysregulated insulin is.In this episode, we unpack why cravings are driven by insulin crashes, not sugar itself, and how stress, poor sleep, under-eating, skipped meals, high cortisol, and nervous system safety play a far bigger role than willpower ever could. You’ll learn why “sugar-free” and artificial sweeteners can worsen cravings, how sweet taste alone can spike insulin, and why satisfaction matters just as much as fullness.We explore the difference between blood sugar crashes and true biological cravings, why old diet science keeps you stuck, and how food communicates safety (or danger) to the nervous system. You’ll also learn how balanced meals, proper timing, and hormone regulation quiet food noise — without restriction or removing foods you love.Key takeaways:• Cravings are signals, not flaws• Sugar is not the problem — insulin is• Stress, sleep, and under-fueling matter as much as food• Sweet taste alone can spike insulin• Being full is not the same as being satisfied• Balanced hormones create effortless intuitionIf this episode challenged what you’ve been taught, there’s a free Hormone Reset Guide available. Comment “HORMONES” wherever you’re listening to receive it.This conversation isn’t about control — it’s about understanding your body and working with it instead of against it.Listen to more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe to me on Spotify, Podcast, and YouTube so you never miss an episode!Join my Facebook Community: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.com Work with me: www.sherryshaban.com/transform Go deeper: www.makepeacewithfood.com Share your biggest takeaway and tag me on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn
