BONUS: When Should You Lower Calories for Fat Loss?

Should you lower your calories when fat loss stalls?In this episode, I break down the decision-making framework I use with clients before ever reducing food. I explain why most people lower calories too quickly, the three data points you need before making any adjustment, and how inaccurate food tracking, poor adherence, and dietary fatigue often create the illusion of a plateau.I also cover how to evaluate your weekly weight trends, when a slower rate of fat loss is actually a good sign, why sustainability matters more than creating the largest possible deficit, and how to know whether lowering food will actually move you closer to your goal. If you're wondering whether it's time to eat less—or if you're simply guessing—this episode will help you make smarter fat loss decisions based on data instead of emotions.Timestamps:- [00:00 – 02:40] – The 3 Data Points Before Lowering Calories- [02:40 – 05:12] – Why Weekly Weight Averages Matter- [05:12 – 06:56] – Can You Sustain a Bigger Calorie Deficit?- [06:56 – 08:36] – Fat Loss Is Slow: Tighten Tracking Before Lowering Food- [08:36 – 10:41] – Dietary Fatigue & Knowing When to End a Diet- [10:41 – 12:37] – How Many Calories Do Most Women Lose Weight On?- [12:37 – 14:58] – When You Should (And Shouldn't) Lower FoodLinks & Resources:Purchase The Complete Fat Loss Guide: https://coryfit.com/product/the-complete-fat-loss-guide/Purchase The Glute Building Blueprint: https://coryfit.com/product/the-complete-glute-building-program/https://coryfit.com/Coaching: Let's Chat⁠https://calendly.com/coryfit-coaching/15minConsults: Book a Call⁠https://calendly.com/coryfit-coaching/one-time-consultationFor more content, follow along:⁠Instagram⁠: https://www.instagram.com/cory_fit/Patreon⁠: https://patreon.com/CoryFit?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink
