 Struggling to lose weight despite your best efforts? Join health accountability coach Lindsey House as she breaks down the real reasons your progress has stalled — and how to shift your mindset for sustainable success. This short, inspiring episode helps you rethink food tracking, ditch perfectionism, and focus on the habits that truly move the scale and your confidence. 

------------------------------------------------------------

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by diet rules, social media noise, or the ups and downs of the scale… this one’s for you.  

🧠 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: 

  • Why “weight loss” isn’t the only goal — it’s a side benefit of overall wellness
  • The power of showing up consistently (even imperfectly!)
  • How to use food journaling as a research tool instead of a restriction tool
  • Ways to identify small, realistic changes that add up over time
  • How comparison sabotages progress — and what “eyes on your own paper” really means

 
🪞 Key Takeaways:
 

  1. You don’t need to do everything perfectly — you just need to show up.
  2. Awareness creates change. Track not to judge, but to learn.
  3. Celebrate what’s working. Give yourself credit for the wins you’ve overlooked.
  4. Small shifts lead to sustainable success. Little by little becomes a lot.


 
🧺 Action Steps for This Week:

✅ Try tracking your food for 3 days — and only focus on the positives.
✅ Identify one small, low-stress change that feels doable this week.
✅ Join the Direction Not Perfection Facebook community for extra support.
✅ Share this episode with a friend who’s ready to ditch perfectionism and find sustainable progress.
