Episode 282: Why you're not making progress and exactly what to do about it


Listen Later

Today's episode is a little different.

I'm taking you inside an actual coaching session with a woman who came to me convinced if she could just find the “right” thing to eat, it would solve her perimenopause weight gain.

She asked me if she should  focus on protein or fiber or water—which one was it?!?!?!

But after asking just a handful of strategic questions, it became clear none of those were her problem.

In this episode, I walk you through exactly how we uncovered what was really driving her weight gain, the simple experiment we created together, and why lasting fat loss has so much more to do with how and why you eat than simply what you eat.

If you've ever felt like you're doing "all the right things" but your body isn't responding the way it used to, this conversation is for you.

What you'll learn

  • Why asking "Should I eat more protein?" is often the wrong question
  • The hidden eating pattern that was sabotaging this woman's progress
  • Why healthy foods can still make weight loss hard
  • The behavior change strategy that made it easy for her to follow through
