Can you actually make weight loss last?

Ethan sits down with Paige to unpack the question that frustrates almost everyone who has ever lost weight: how do you keep it off? They discuss why most diets fail after the weight comes off, the difference between dieting and long-term maintenance, the psychology of food rules, calorie awareness, and why sustainable habits matter more than short-term restriction.

Ethan also shares what has changed in his own approach and why consistency, not perfection, has made the difference.
