102. FAT LOSS SERIES 6. What to do When Your Calorie Deficit STOPS Working.

If you haven't listened to the previous 5 episodes, I highly recommend you go back and listen to them in order, as each episode builds upon the last, so that's how you'll get the most out of them! In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most frustrating parts of the fitness journey: plateaus. We’ll talk about why they happen, how metabolic adaptation plays a role, and how you can stay motivated when things aren’t moving as quickly as you’d like. I’m also sharing the power of diet breaks—a key strategy to reset your metabolism and break through those plateaus. Plus, we’ll discuss how you can avoid burnout and stay focused on long-term progress rather than getting caught up in the immediate results (or lack of them!). If you’ve been putting in the work but feel stuck, like you’re not seeing progress, or you’re frustrated with the scale—this episode is for you. 🚨 What we’re covering: ✅ Why plateaus happen and how metabolic adaptation plays a role.
 ✅ How to stay motivated when progress feels slow.
 ✅ The mental side of dieting and how to avoid burnout. 
✅ How to shift your focus from the scale to real, sustainable progress.   P.S. Please review my podcast, as it really helps get it out to more women that need to hear this.
