You may feel like you are trying so hard and not seeing any progress. You may just want to throw in the towel and go emotionally eat. Here’s the honest truth, many people think they know what to do to lose weight, but they only have parts of the puzzle. They need the rest of the pieces, in an order that is easy to follow, with someone to hold them accountable and coach them along the dreaded plateaus. It’s not easy. It doesn’t happen overnight. You aren’t dieting, you are changing your lifestyle. Changing behavior takes a long time of working to be consistent, slipping up, and then trying again. Over and over and over until it sticks. So if you are struggling to lose weight, or if you have lost some but can’t seem to get the scale going again, we want you to listen very closely to everything in this episode. Highlights From This Episode[02:28] Unfortunately, stalls during weight loss are completely normal.
