About this episode

The episode discusses the reasons why individuals may not lose weight despite following healthy routines and highlights the complexity of health beyond just the scale.

You’re counting macros, sticking to routines, and doing “everything right.” So why isn’t the scale moving? The truth is, weight loss isn’t always the goal—or the full picture of health. Hormones, life changes, and even perfectionism can all play a role in how your body responds.
