The 8 stages between stuck and steady

About this episode

This episode explores the 8 stages of change in the weight loss journey and how to progress through them.

You know the cycle. You start strong. You fall off. You start again. And every time you start, it feels heavier than the time before. This episode is the mirror you have been avoiding. We walk you through the 8 stages every long-term changer moves through, from the bottom rung where you pretend nothing is wrong, to the top where you do whatever it takes. We share where we each got stuck, for how long, and what knocked us up to the next stage. Listen with one question in mind: where am I really? Been listening for a while and want the full picture? We made a comprehensive training that walks through the four biggest reasons people stay stuck in the weight loss cycle and what to do instead to make sure you are moving in the right direction consistently.
