Mini Mikkipedia - Why Eating Better Often Means Eating More
This week on Mini Mikkipedia, Mikki unpacks one of the most counter-intuitive truths in fat loss: eating better often means eating more food, not less. Many people equate weight loss with shrinking portions and constant restriction, yet this approach usually backfires. In this episode, Mikki explains the critical difference between food volume and energy density, and why swapping ultra-processed, calorie-dense foods for whole, nutrient-dense meals leads to greater satiety, quieter hunger, and more consistent fat loss.
She explores how protein, fibre, and meal structure work together to reduce grazing, decision fatigue, and “food noise,” while supporting long-term weight maintenance. If fat loss has felt like white-knuckling through hunger, this episode reframes success as eating adequately, calmly, and sustainably—without relying on willpower or deprivation.
Key Topics Covered
- Volume vs energy density and why plate size can increase while calories drop
- The role of protein and fibre in satiety and appetite regulation
- How under-eating drives grazing, snacking, and food noise
- Why structured meals beat constant restraint for long-term fat loss
