podcast it's your buddy Adam the PhD the previously heavy dude no intro to nay no theme

music and no sponsors this is just a quick actionable tip that you can implement right away

and get better results this week. And this is episode number 106, how to set a way in range

progress we're making really nice steady progress and then heaven forbid you go from 170 to 172 the next time you

weigh and you freak out about I'm up two pounds.

So the weigh in range is the technique that I've been using with people that tend to either freak out or just have kind of stalled out a little bit and so this is the way it works.
