Success doesn't come from what you do occasionally, but from what you do consistently.

In this episode, I discuss effective strategies for setting and achieving healthy weight loss goals. I break down the SMART goal framework, explaining how to create goals that are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. I emphasize the importance of avoiding vague resolutions and instead setting clear, realistic objectives like losing a specific number of pounds within a defined period. I also cover ways to track progress without becoming obsessed, such as using apps like MyFitnessPal, taking body measurements, and monitoring non-scale victories. Additionally, I highlight the importance of mindset, self-compassion, and avoiding social media comparisons while staying consistent and celebrating small achievements along the way.
