106. Why You’re Not Losing Weight (And the 3 Simple Fixes That Actually Work)
Mon Feb 02 2026
Ever feel like you’ve tried everything to lose weight, but the scale just will not move? Like you should be further along by now. Like maybe you’re doing something wrong. Like you’re one bad week away from saying “screw it” and starting over…again.
In this episode, I’m breaking down why weight loss stalls even when you’re “doing all the things”, and why pushing harder is usually the exact thing keeping you stuck. Spoiler: it’s not about willpower. It’s about your systems.
I’m walking you through 3 simple shifts I’ve been using with clients lately to help them regain momentum without extreme rules, restriction, or starting over. I also get real about my own postpartum season, why habits that used to work may not fit your life anymore, and the ONE thing almost everyone skips that makes or breaks long-term progress.
If you’re tired of overcomplicating weight loss, beating yourself up, or waiting for the “perfect week” to start again…this episode will feel like a deep exhale. You’re not behind. You’re not failing. You’re just one system away from momentum again.
If you’re ready to stop stressing, start seeing progress, and finally become the healthiest version of YOU, press play and let’s get you moving forward, one simple shift at a time.
xoxo,
Jackie
