About this episode
Bradee Felton discusses how simplifying her approach helped her lose 30 pounds and maintain the weight loss.
I used to think I needed to do everything perfectly to lose weight and keep it off. More workouts, stricter diets, more intensity, more rules. But the thing that actually helped me lose 30 pounds and maintain it long term was simplifying everything. In this episode, I’m talking about overwhelm, perfectionism, consistency, and why the “all or nothing” mindset is probably what’s really keeping you stuck - and what we can actually do about it!
