In this episode of the Queen of Pep Talks, Jessica Battle breaks down the key differences between losing weight in 2016 vs. losing weight in 2026—and why her approach today looks nothing like it did a decade ago.
After navigating heartbreak, healing, and a new relationship (yes, the happy relationship weight gain is real), Jessica shares why she’s committed to losing weight again—but this time without obsession, restriction, or self-punishment. Drawing from her own lived experience of extreme dieting, binge eating, and scale obsession, she explains how mindset, habits, and self-trust now lead her decisions.
This episode is a grounded, honest look at sustainable weight loss, food freedom, and what it actually takes to feel good in your body long-term—especially for women who are done losing the same weight over and over again.
