281. Replay: Weight Loss Is Not the Goal


Listen Later

Most people think the key to better health is simply losing weight.

So they set a goal, like “lose 30 pounds by August,” and go all in.

But somewhere along the way, they hit a stall, get frustrated, and often give up.

The truth is, this approach is totally backward.

In this episode of the podcast, I’m explaining why Weight Loss Is Not the Goal.

Real, lasting weight loss doesn’t come from obsessing over a number on the scale — it comes as a natural result of getting healthy.

When you focus on becoming the healthiest version of yourself — physically, mentally, and emotionally — the weight takes care of itself.

This shift in mindset changes everything.

So if you’ve been stuck in the diet-start-fail-repeat cycle, this episode will show you a whole new way forward.
