EP 275. How to Troubleshoot Your Weight Loss When the Scale Won’t Move (Without Counting Calories)
If you’ve ever realized you’re the same weight as last year and thought, “What am I missing?” this episode is your deep breath. I’m walking you through the 4 checkpoints I use with private clients to troubleshoot a stalled scale—without calorie counting, macro math, or food policing. You’ll learn how to tell emotional hunger from physical hunger, how to stop at satisfied (not stuffed), how to end autopilot eating, and how to handle emotions without food. We’re not adding rules. We’re updating identity.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
Why it’s usually not what you eat—it’s how and why you eat
The simple 1-sentence test for emotional vs. physical hunger
My Satisfaction Scale that ends overeating without restriction
How BLTs (bites, licks, tastes) keep you stuck—and how to stop the drip
A gentle, four-step flow to get the scale moving again
Why information isn’t transformation—and where coaching fits
