EP151 - Luke’s Journey: Why the Third Time’s the Charm

In this episode, I chat with Luke - someone who’s been through the weight loss process not once, not twice, but three times. After losing significant weight in the past, only to regain it again (twice), Luke found himself stuck in the cycle so many of us know too well: restriction, rebound, and shame.

But this time is different. Luke opens up about how shifting his mindset, working with a coach, and focusing on small, sustainable habits helped him break the cycle for good. We talk about why past approaches didn’t last, how internal pressure and the all-or-nothing mindset held him back, and why this time, it’s not just about weight - it’s about self-trust, honesty, and long-term wellbeing.

This episode is a must-listen if you’ve ever felt defeated by repeated setbacks or wondered if lasting change is still possible. Luke’s journey is proof that it absolutely is.

Key Highlights:

Losing and regaining weight twice – Why past transformations didn’t last

What made this attempt different – The mindset shifts that created sustainable progress

The role of coaching & self-awareness – Building tools instead of rules

Letting go of pressure & perfection – Why self-kindness creates consistency

Owning the journey – How Luke reclaimed control and rewrote his story
