Progress Not Perfection

How to break a weight loss plateau


Listen Later

Did It Actually Stall? Or are you just being impatient?


We know that in order to lose weight, you need to be in a calorie deficit. In other words, eating less calories than your body burns. So before all the Karens starts sending me emails about how they are eating 1200 calories and STILL NOT LOSING FAT, you need to know this:

Without a calorie deficit, fat loss is not possible. It’s just not.

No matter how much people want to argue this, and don’t want it to be true, it still is true.

However…

You should also be doing these 5 things:

-Eating in a calorie deficit
-Strength Training 3-4x a week
-Getting 7-9 hours of sleep
-Eating sufficient protein
-Walking 7-10k steps/day

If you aren’t doing one of these 5 things, chances are you are missing a piece of the fat loss puzzle.

You haven’t actually plateaued…

There a few reasons why you may not actually be plateaued, you just think you are:

-Only using the scale.
-Not tracking calories accurately
-Not being as consistent as you think

I run into this a lot with my online coaching clients, and it can definitely be frustrating when the scale doesn’t move.

There's a lot of misinformation in the fitness and nutrition industry, that's why I am here.

What's up guys? I'm Jeffrey Pachtman. A chef, nutritionist, and personal trainer who coaches average everyday people online.

I break down and simplify the SCIENCE of fat loss and nutrition to make it easy for anyone to digest.

We are going to eat a LOT of tacos 🌮 , drink some Topo Chico with some lime and have a great time while we lose body fat, gain muscle, and enjoy some our favorite foods while doing it.
