Summary
Just because you could lose more weight or you want to lose more weight, doesn't mean you're a failure if you aren't seeing results.
We need to stop being ashamed of maintenance or plateaus.
We need to see them as critical parts of the process that shouldn't be fought or rushed.
One of the best ways to ensure the change you've worked hard to create is permanent is to prove your ability to maintain it. Periods of maintenance can & should happen along the path to progress.
Furthermore, it's beyond okay if weight loss isn't your objective at all times. You can have other priorities while you hold the line.
I am super fired up to share today's episode with you. You've got to take a listen!

| 0:51.5 | have weight we could lose. |
| 0:55.4 | Some people might call that a plateau, other people might just refer to it as not making |
| 0:58.6 | progress, but I want to create a drastic shift in the way we think about this. |
| 1:05.2 | My hair is seriously on fire to talk about this today. |
| 1:08.7 | But before I do, super important announcement you may have heard me mention it in episode |
| 1:14.1 | 462 and that is about a change in our podcast schedule. |
| 1:20.4 | We are shifting starting this week from three episodes weekly to two episodes weekly. |
| 1:27.1 | When the podcast started, I was doing one episode each week and then I quickly moved to three |
| 1:33.3 | so we've been on this Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday schedule for quite a while. |
| 1:37.7 | We are dropping the Saturday show starting this week and that's not a bad thing. |
