This episode is a little bit different. Instead of sharing expert advice, Amira tells her story of a remarkable transformation from childhood obesity and emotional eating, along with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), to losing over 50 kilograms. Amira, known as the Sports Data Scientist, now competes as a world-class bodybuilder and runs a business to help others, especially children, achieve similar goals. Amira's business, HoliHOP (Holistic Health Optimisation Project), aims to prevent childhood obesity by making health education and professional support more accessible, empowering families to build sustainable habits that last a lifetime.

We cover:

• What it’s like to grow up obese and feel 50kg heavier than your peers
• Every diet Amira tried and why none of them worked long-term
• What it took to go from overweight to 2nd place on the world stage
• Advice for anyone stuck in the cycle of yo-yo dieting, body shame, or emotional eating

If you struggle with emotional eating or are stuck in the yo-yo dieting cycle, this episode will provide you with valuable insights and tips on how to deal with it.
