Ep. 28 Why fat loss feels harder than you expected

Fat loss feels harder than expected because it has a real “cost” and dragging it out makes it feel even worse.Expect lower energy, more food noise, scale fluctuations + less spontaneity (that’s normal in a deficit).Small, consistent deficit + high protein + steps + structured lifting beats “weekend undoing/eyeballing/chopping & changing.”Sustainable loss is slow (roughly 0.25–0.75% bodyweight/week) → bigger goals need longer timelines.Wee tip: Mute/unfollow food + recipe accounts while dieting to reduce cravings/food noise.Let's chat:WhatsApp meThanks so much for tuning into today’s episode!
