Balanced Body Podcast with Laura B Fit

04. How I'm Preparing For My Fat Loss Phase


Listen Later

In this episode of The Balanced Body Podcast, I'm opening up about what happens before a fat loss phase — the prep work that makes everything easier, more sustainable, and a lot less chaotic.

From wrapping up my postpartum fat loss in May, to choosing a summer at maintenance, to rebuilding routines and awareness before re-entering a deficit — this is the behind-the-scenes of how I set myself up to follow through when life is busy (hello, toddler snacks and wedding travel).

This episode is part strategy, part mindset shift, and a reminder that you don't have to live in a calorie deficit to make progress. Building foundations first is what protects your energy, your sanity, and your results.

✨ What you'll hear in this episode:

  • How I used biofeedback to know it was time to pause fat loss (and why ~16–20 weeks is my sweet spot)

  • Why I chose a summer at maintenance — and didn't lose progress

  • The "awareness → foundations → fat loss" approach I use with clients before any deficit

  • Three simple strategies I used to navigate emotional eating with a toddler around

If you've ever felt ready for change but overwhelmed by everything you "should" do, this episode will remind you to start small, build awareness, and let the foundations carry you into fat loss when the time is right.
