Maintenance Mindset Mondays is all about cracking open the conversation about what REAL maintenance looks like – beyond the scale and deep into personal transformation. Join Gina and Odette as they dive into the week’s focus, share insights on all things maintenance, and answer your questions. Whether you’re new or experienced, there’s something for everyone!

In this week’s episode, Gina and Odette explore the emotional letdown that often hits after high-energy events, like Halloween, the Jays' games, or a hectic weekend. They talk about how these moments can leave you feeling “blah” or oddly unsettled, even when nothing’s technically wrong. From feeling ordinary to embracing a calm routine, they guide the community through the natural reset that Mondays offer. This episode reminds maintainers that while weight loss may be in the rearview, the real work—sustaining change, trusting your habits, and staying mindful—is just as important now. Sometimes, simply doing what you know is the biggest win.

In this episode, Gina gets real about the emotional layers of weight loss, calling out the patterns that keep people stuck and encouraging honest self-reflection.

From recognizing your own excuses to managing the rollercoaster of progress, Gina highlights how staying grounded and compassionate with yourself can be the difference between giving up and growing through it. Success, she reminds us, isn’t about doing it perfectly—it’s about learning to feel good in your body and your life.
