If you’re someone whose background in dieting consists of calorie counting, food scales, and meal plans, taking on a more mindful approach to eating can be scary as hell. We take comfort in the hard data. Instead of allowing our hunger and fullness cues to guide our eating, we turn our focus outward to feel safe and secure in our calorie deficit.   Join Coach Steph Miramontes and me on today's episode of the Fat Murder Podcast as we discuss the four stages of weight loss and how to measure progress without the number crunching. And because progress can be hard to measure without the number crunching, it becomes frustrating to not-always be able to tell if you’re on the right path.   This episode will help you see where you are, understand why you’re there, and provide you with some helpful tools to help you keep moving forward. What about you? What stage are you currently on? Where were you three months ago? And where will you be six months from now if you keep practicing?
