When tackling weight loss, most people turn to the tried-and-true methods of cutting calories and increasing exercise. But what if these tactics don't deliver results? How do we safeguard against losing muscle instead of fat? It's time for a paradigm shift: prioritize body recomposition over simply shedding pounds. After all, it's not just about weight loss-it's about crafting a healthier, more resilient body as we age.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with JJ Virgin to discuss her top weight loss, muscle building, and vibrant aging strategies. She emphasizes the importance of resistance training for sustained weight loss and tracking individual goals for long-term motivation. Additionally, she shares the secrets she’s learned in her 20-plus years as a celebrity nutritionist, including the most common mistakes women make when trying to lose belly fat, the importance of adding in versus removing, and how to age powerfully.
JJ Virgin is a renowned health and fitness expert, bestselling author, and prominent media personality. With over three decades of experience in the field, she has become a trusted authority in nutrition, weight loss, and wellness. She is the author of four New York Times bestsellers: The Virgin Diet, The Virgin Diet Cookbook, JJ Virgin's Sugar Impact Diet, and JJ Virgin's Sugar Impact Diet Cookbook. Virgin actively contributes to the health and wellness community through speaking engagements, online programs, and her podcast, Well Beyond 40. Her expertise extends beyond nutrition and weight loss as she advocates for a holistic approach to health that encompasses mindset, exercise, and emotional well-being.
In this episode, Dhru and JJ dive into:
-Sustained weight loss and belly fat
-Resistance training as a critical piece of sustained weight loss
-Tracking movement and progress
-Optimal hydration for weight loss
-The benefits of removing alcohol
-Testing body composition
-Food tracking to get an accurate assessment
-Aging powerfully
-Flabby skin and aging
-Japan’s strategy for weight loss as a nation
-Childhood obesity
-Tracking your protein intake
-JJ’s daily routine and protein consumption

    FYI… while they are in the meat group…eggs are not chickens. There is no chicken unless it gets fertilized. In which case, it attaches via a cord, to the yolk. The yolk is what the chicken eats while growing. The whites of the egg are to protect… like the water in a woman’s belly. However, towards the end, the chicken eats that also

    The most tride/true way of getting a great physique for both men and women is : 1) Full body lifting with progressive overload 3x per week. Full body is great because it allows for optimal frequency of each body part while also giving more overall recovery. **But it's important to focus on strength with traditional lifting. This means going relatively heavy where you can only do 6-10 reps max per set and taking full 2-3 min rest periods between sets. Don't circuit train to do cardio with weights or use light weight you can do endless reps with. The point is to add lean mass to raise your metabolic rate. 2) Daily walking. Walking is the best fat loss hack of all time. It is even easier when you use the "walking snacks" method. Spread the 10-20K steps over the whole day with short 15-30 min walks every 2-3hrs.

    They lost me at ‘fat makes you fat’. I’ve listened to lots of info based on up to date research and it suggests controlling blood glucose it more important than calorie counting and fat doesn’t easily turn in stored fat, the body stores any excess as fat but more easily when glucose is raised. Seems this conversation wasn’t based on current research except for on the use of ozempic!

    @catcan221 - On the flipside, a person can intersperse TONS of walking throughout their entire day every single day of the year. This will burn far more cals overall than swimming. Not to mention, the walker is also lifting and doing formal cardio in addition to all of that walking. So in order for you to match, you'd have to swim for 2-3hrs every single day in addition to lifting and general movement. This is why walking is a perfect example of why the tortoise beats the hare.

    "How do you know if you lost fat or weight" is a weak delineation of weight loss. However, JJ lost me ~5 minutes in using specifically egg whites as part of a nutritious breakfast. Why oh why would an "expert" say this? Why not use the egg yolk? No need to listen further since now I'm confused and doubtful / skeptical of JJ's cred.

    If you are trying to get in 30g of protein for breakfast, you will need to eat 4-5 eggs. If you want to eat any butter, fruit, or other food with those eggs, eating the whites would allow for that without blowing your calorie count at breakfast. The yolk is what makes the egg taste good, in addition to the choline and other nutrients it contains. I’m not a fan of eggs because you have to eat so many of them to get a decent amount of protein in a meal. I find it easier to have a protein shake or meat for breakfast to get in my protein.

    Eating protein first is not the most recent gut research recommendation. The best way to a healthier gut and keeping blood sugar levels under better control- is to eat vegetables first, then protein. I don’t have the data at hand but since I just heard it recently (on another of the same topic of overall and metabolic health) it shouldn’t be too hard to find info on it. These super healthy and good looking people are so easy to get hooked into- (it’s in our wiring) but we should use a little caution before jumping in head first. When she described her typical day of food- she totally lost me. I like eating healthy but I like actual food.
