  • 159. How To Be Consistent in 2025 To Lose Weight

    I'm gonna say it... 2025 is the year you stay consistent to lose the mf weight you want lol. I am so serious. In this episode, I break down how you can stay consistent with your workouts AND meals by focusing on the things that matter. Not what the typical fitness influencers are doing or the Ozempic girlies to shortcut this weight loss process because that's not gonna keep the weight off.

    Here's what to expect in this episode:

    • Why relying solely on motivation doesn’t work and how habits build long-term consistency.

    • Your body doesn't care about the “perfect” workouts and meals

    • How your old weight loss plan is sabotaging your progress and what to do instead.

    • Weight loss strategies that I go over:

      • Creating short, effective workouts you can actually stick to.

      • Enjoying cultural foods while losing weight.

      • Using tools like DoorDash in a way that supports your goals.

        Apply for 1:1 Coaching: Ready to lose 10-20 pounds while eating foods you love? My 1:1 coaching program is designed to help women of color like you ditch restrictive diets and eat your cultural foods to keep the weight off for good.

      • 158. Updates From 2024 and Welcome To Reclaim Your Plate

        In Q3 of 2024, I got this intuitive hit to change my podcast name to accurately reflect the work I do today & my values. I realized that every single client I’ve worked with & those of you who listen to the podcast every week had this similar theme of reconnecting back to your body because of the food on your plate (bye to western diets that doesn’t allow you to eat your cultural foods).

        And it finally clicked! The title reclaim your plate came to my heart and I instantly fell in love with it. THIS was how I was able to have a winning weight loss journey. It was also how my clients were able to do the same too. Reclaiming my plate allowed me to reconnect back to my body (after being disconnected from it thru all the diets I’ve done) and remember my roots.

        I hope you love the new podcast name as much as I do and just know Your Winning Journey (the old podcast name) will always be in my heart and it is a byproduct of me giving myself permission to eat Hmong food again. Go subscribe to the updated podcast and just know I am grateful for you!

      • 156. Why Mainstream Weight Loss Diets Fail Women of Color

        Today's topic is all about why we, as women of color (WOC) need different weight loss support than our white peers. In a white-centered health/fitness industry where diets and workouts are focused on tracking calories and being on this journey "alone" (aka individualism culture), this approach doesn't work for our cultural foods or the roles we play at home (aka collectivism culture). This is a reminder that you do not need to strip your cultural identity and who you are to succeed in weight loss. You've assimilated to Western culture enough your whole life in your career, there's no need to do the same in your weight loss journey. Tune in as I go over these topics and dive deeper into how women of color face racist systemic challenges when it comes to healthcare and how knowing your body better than anyone else helps you advocate for your health. Listen now.

      • 155. LOSE 5 POUNDS BY JANUARY PT 5: Celebrating Non-Scale Wins To Stay Consistent

        I can't believe we are on day 5 of this series! Today is my favorite episode because it's a reminder that you will FEEL the progress before you see the progress. As you listen to each of these episodes and take small steps daily to see 5 pounds come off by January 2025, there will be a voice in your head telling you "There are no changes yet". At that moment, if you are not onto your mind, it will make retract your efforts and slow down the progress that you will see in the next couple of weeks. This episode is about trusting the process, and celebrating the small steps because that's the recipe for consistency. Tune in now.

      • 154. LOSE 5 POUNDS BY JANUARY PT 4: Get a Workout In Today Even If You're Busy

        I can't believe we are on day 4 of the 5-day series to help you lose 5 pounds by January 2025! I am busting a BIG misconception that delays your progress, which is thinking you need to do "certain" workouts to lose your first 5 pounds. When really, your first 5 pounds is all about consistency no matter what TYPE of workouts you do.

        If you get caught up in waiting until you have time to get a gym membership, drive to the gym, or believe that walking daily or working out from home doesn't "count" in your mind, you are looking at distractions to keep you from being consistent.

        This is why in this episode, I share how you can get a 15-minute workout today no matter what your schedule looks like and the mindset you need to have to keep this up.

        Once you lose 5 pounds, lifting weights is needed to lose 10, 15, 20+ pounds BUT for now, don't ahead of yourself. You can see results right now with what you have and start building lasting momentum with this movement habit. Tune in now and come back tomorrow for the last episode of this series.

      • 150. Redefining Weight Loss and Culture Ft. Samantha Lee By Wellthy Generation Podcast

        This was such an amazing conversation I had with my friend Naihomy Jerez who is a health/hormone coach on her WELLTHY GENERATION podcast. I had to share this episode with you because it is THAT GOOD. If you're struggling with being attached to the scale and not knowing where to start for strength training, this one's for ya. See below for the notes from Naihomy :)

        In this episode, I’m sitting down with the amazing @superlysam, a health coach who’s redefining weight loss for women of color. Samantha isn’t here for the usual diet culture noise - instead, she’s all about embracing cultural foods, challenging outdated metrics like BMI, and creating a space where our diverse bodies are fully understood and celebrated.

        We talk about the complicated relationship many of us have with the scale and how it can get in the way of enjoying life’s big moments, like vacations and family time. Samantha shares her thoughts on why strength training can be a game-changer for women’s health and explains how to ease into it, starting with simple moves that build confidence and strength.

        This episode goes deep, touching on the emotional and cultural hurdles that can make prioritizing self-care challenging for women of color. Samantha shares her own journey, including how she’s brought healthier habits into her family and is breaking generational cycles of unhealthy patterns. From setting realistic, lasting goals to embracing wellness as a lifelong practice, Samantha’s story is here to inspire you to rewrite your health narrative in a way that’s true to you.

        💚 If you’ve enjoyed the Wellthy Generation podcast this year, I’d be incredibly grateful if you took a minute to leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts to help the podcast grow! Big thanks for tuning in! 🙌🏽

      About Reclaim Your Plate

      From the publisher's feed

      Coach Sam is a Hmong-American woman, the eldest daughter of refugee parents, a speaker, and a weight loss coach who helps women of color (WOC) lose weight and break out of following racist diet culture rules. Her work was inspired by her 11-year weight loss journey where she felt the need to strip her cultural identity to fit into society's standard of "white healthy" aka the Western Diet.
