Have you ever experienced what felt like a significant jump on the scale shortly after finishing a diet?

You’re not alone.

In this episode, I’ll convince you that your end of diet weight is a lie. And that by using this final weight (or, your lowest weight), as a reference point to judge success during a maintenance phase, you’re setting yourself up for failure. Instead, you’ll learn what a more accurate (and reliable) point of reference is to better use to define success during a maintenance phase and how to use the scale, in general, to track progress after a diet.

 

Action Step: After listening to this episode, figure out your new – more accurate and reliable – reference weight to be used to measure success during your current or upcoming post-diet weight maintenance phase.
