If you feel like youβre doing everything right and the scale still wonβt budge, I promise youβre not broken. Iβve had this exact conversation with clients more times than I can count.
Hereβs what usually turns out to be true.
Youβre probably not eating enough protein. Most women I work with are eating half of what their body actually needs, which keeps them hungry and losing muscle instead of fat.
Youβre probably under sleeping and not realizing how much it matters. Bad sleep raises the hormone that makes you hungrier the next day. Itβs not in your head.
Youβre probably still weighing yourself every single day. Your weight can shift for ten reasons that have nothing to do with fat loss. Water, stress, hormones, sodium. I tell my clients to put the scale away for two weeks and just watch how their clothes fit instead.
And honestly, youβre probably being harder on yourself than any client Iβve ever had permission to be hard on. That alone can keep you stuck more than any food choice ever could.
None of this means you need to overhaul your whole life this week. Pick one thing from this list and just work on that.
DM READY if you want help figuring out which one of these is actually your issue.
