184. My Calorie Deficit Review: 10lbs down with big wins, disappointments, and ah-has

I just completed a 12-week calorie deficit where I dropped 10lbs and created a fit, feminine shape I love. In this episode, I’m walking you through the exact strategy I followed, from the overarching plan, to the specific macros, training, execution, and lessons learned along the way. We cover: The 2-year strategy that got me here (including my 6-month build phase) My exact deficit game plan and why I hired a coach The specific nutrition, training, and cardio protocols I followed What helped make this my easiest deficit yet My big wins (like quad definition!) and real frustrations (like water retention!) I always say it’s about having the science, strategy, and the system in place, and this was the perfect example. I felt energized, not hangry. I made progress on vacation. And I actually loved the process! (and the result of course :)) DM me your questions @jennythenutritionist I’ll be doing a Calorie Deficit Q&A in next week’s episode!  LIMITED TIME OFF: Work with Jenny in Create Your Shape SPRINT (8-weeks starting Sept. 28th 2026) → https://jennythenutritionist.com/create-your-shape/Book a Consultation with Jenny → https://calendly.com/jennythenutritionist/consultationFollow Jenny the Nutritionist on Instagram → @jennythenutritionist
