The Macro Hour

Why Maintenance Feels So Boring (And Why That’s the Point) | Ep. 285


Listen Later

In this episode of The Macro Hour, Nikkiey Stott dives into the most overlooked and underrated phase of any transformation journey: maintenance.

You crushed your fat loss goals. You hit your number. You feel good…

 But now? The compliments slow down. The scale stops moving. And honestly? You feel kinda meh about it all.

Welcome to maintenance — the phase where real discipline begins and where long-term success is either built or lost.

In this raw and real episode, Nikkiey breaks down:

  • Why maintenance feels mentally boring (but why that’s actually a GOOD thing)
  • How to deal with the loss of external validation after fat loss
  • The exact markers that show you're crushing the maintenance phase
  • What to focus on instead of the scale
  • And why this phase is where your identity really gets locked in

If you’ve ever reached your goal weight and thought, “Now what?”, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to live in your results — and never start over again.

Spoiler: The flex isn’t losing the weight. It’s keeping it off without obsession.

Let’s go.
