We've all had those moments when we indulge a little bit too much, whether that's a hearty meal, a delicious dessert, or a late-night snack that turns into a feast. But have you ever wondered what happens to your body when you overeat? 

In this episode, I dive deep into this topic and provide actionable steps to mitigate the impact of overeating on your body composition or weight management goals. Some of the things I cover in this episode are:

• (4:15) What happens in your body when you overeat your macros?
• (12:30) How digestion impacts calorie burn, and what that means for your weight management goals.
• (16:50) How does the composition of your meals impact fat storage?
• (29:50) Why when we eat more, we tend to burn more calories.
• (33:45) Does our body absorb all foods in the same way? What exactly is the impact of absorption on calorie intake?

Overeating can have both short-term and long-term effects on our health, but it’s nothing to be afraid of when we understand what’s happening in the body.

Thanks for listening! Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to get more advice for reaching your health goals with a macros approach.
