EP 266. How I Lost 30 Pounds 11 Years Ago and Kept It Off
Eleven years ago, I lost 30 pounds. But here’s the real flex: I’ve kept it off ever since.
This episode isn’t about some quick fix or “before-and-after” photo. It’s about the after the after. What happens when the diet ends, the weight is gone, and life throws you curveballs—like hormones, perimenopause, entrepreneurship, marriage, and stress?
I’m breaking down exactly what I did in 2014 to lose the weight, and more importantly, how I’ve stayed consistent enough to keep it off for more than a decade. Spoiler: it has nothing to do with meal plans, willpower, or eating boiled chicken.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
How I finally ditched dieting for good
The #1 skill that helped me stop emotional eating while building my business
Why bioindividuality is the secret to long-term weight loss (and what it looks like in real life)
How an identity shift made consistency second nature
The difference between losing weight for a season and keeping it off for life
🎧 Listen in, and then grab your free seat at my live training Cure Your Inconsistency. Because once you learn how to stay consistent, you’ll never have to “start over” again.
