Episode 2604 – Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss the return of CICO, hormones and eating, yoga and pilates, and more.

Vinnie has been getting a lot of questions lately regarding restricting and tracking calories. (2:00)
Does CICO (Calories In Calories Out) work? (5:00)
- Short answer: yes. But why do it? It is a form of restriction and the best way of losing weight is through controlling your hormones, which can be done without tracking every calorie. (13:00)
- You can control aspects of your hormones through lifestyle and eating.
Eating correctly and avoiding processed junk helps control insulin, ghrelin, leptin.
- Insulin regulates blood glucose.
- Ghrelin is the hormone that signals hunger.
- Leptin signals when you are full.
- Cortisol responds to stress and can cause weight gain.
Vinnie explains how “resistance” develops. (30:00)
Vinnie mentions he had a consultation where a caller’s life coach joined in the conversation. (39:00)
- Anna loves this idea! Getting the extra help, if you can do it, could be beneficial.
ALSO: You can invest in Eat Happy Kitchen through her website and StartEngine. (18:30)

What about yoga, Pilates, & stretching as forms of exercise?
- Vinnie loves yoga because it can stretch your muscles and joints, but it is not necessarily great for strength training. (43:00)
- Reformer Pilates is a great anaerobic exercise and great for strength.
- Don’t rush through the exercises. Take your time and do it right. It should kick your ass, but not put you in pain.
- Stretching is good for muscles and joints, but doesn’t count towards strength training.
