Episode 128: How long should I maintain weight loss?
from Bite Me Nutrition · host Jonathan Steedman, APD
In this episode, I talk about the reality of trying to stay in a calorie deficit for weight loss, and why it’s not as simple as just “eat less, move more.” I explain why your approach needs to be personalised based on things like how big your deficit is, your current body fat levels, and what’s actually going on in your life.I also share why I’m not a fan of long, drawn-out dieting phases without a break. Instead, I prefer shorter, more manageable blocks that are easier to stick to and less likely to burn you out.And finally, I touch on the fact that life isn’t predictable. Things come up, routines change, and that all impacts your ability to stay consistent. So rather than fighting that, I show you how to work with it.Time Stamps:00:00 Understanding Weight Loss Deficits02:41 Factors Influencing Diet Duration05:31 Life's Impact on Weight Loss Goals08:11 Final Thoughts on Dieting StrategiesClick me for show notes!PS.
