SHOW NOTES
1. **Elimination diet: The first way to kickstart your weight loss again**
Elimination diets are considered the gold standard for identifying foods that may not agree with your body^1. Common food allergens include eggs, fish, milk, peanuts, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat^1. Other problematic substances can include alcohol, corn, histamines, gluten, fructose, lactose, nitrites, MSG, and nightshades^1.

2. **Fasting: The second way to kickstart your weight loss again**
Insulin resistance (IR) contributes to a variety of health issues, including atherosclerosis, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and various cancers^2. Current research suggests that intermittent fasting is a viable non-medical treatment option for type 2 diabetes^3. Fasting can also normalize certain physiological parameters in obese individuals^2.

3. **Sunlight: The third way to kickstart your weight loss again**
Exposure to blue light can potentially impact lipid homeostasis^4. In another study, exposure to morning light was associated with reduced body fat and appetite in obese women^5.

4. **Cold exposure: The fourth way to kickstart your weight loss again**
Cold exposure can stimulate BAT activity, increase glucose and lipid uptake, and lead to metabolic benefits like increased energy expenditure and insulin sensitivity^6.
