Is Your Metabolism Stuck? | Ep. 06

Losing weight is one thing—keeping it off is a whole different ballgame.

Most people think once they hit their goal weight, they can just go back to “normal” eating. But here’s the truth: how you lose fat is NOT how you keep it off. Your body undergoes major metabolic adaptations that change the way it burns and stores energy, making weight maintenance a whole new challenge.

In this episode, we’re breaking down:

💡 Why Weight Loss Plateaus Happen (And How to Break Through Them)

• What was once a calorie deficit will eventually become your maintenance intake—so what got you results in the beginning won’t keep working forever.
• How metabolic adaptation shifts your body’s energy needs and hormone balance, making long-term fat loss trickier than it seems.

💡 The Biggest Weight Regain Mistakes

• How changes in hunger hormones after weight loss can increase your appetite, making you more vulnerable to weight regain.
• Why metabolic inflexibility makes fat loss harder and how to train your body to burn fat efficiently.
• The #1 question you need to ask yourself before committing to a weight loss plan: “Am I willing to do this forever?”

💡 How to Make Weight Maintenance Easier

• The key role of protein, healthy fats, and blood sugar balance in keeping hunger under control.
• Why checking your thyroid and hormone health is critical for long-term fat loss success.
• How to build an eating framework that works for you, so you’re not stuck in the lose-regain cycle.

Your body is always working to adapt, and when you understand how it actually functions, you can set yourself up for lasting success instead of frustration.
