If you’ve been stuck on the scale, trying all the things, and wondering why nothing seems to work long-term… this episode is your wake-up call.

I’m breaking down exactly how I lost 15 pounds and kept it off for 15 years without extreme diets, fancy equipment, or chasing perfection. Spoiler: it all comes down to honesty, consistency and three surprisingly simple shifts.

These strategies are what finally moved the needle after years of plateauing and second-guessing everything I ate. You don’t need to overhaul your entire life you just need to do the basics, really well.

Inside this episode:

Why perfection isn’t the goal (and what actually matters instead)

The hidden daily habit that silently sabotages your progress

The real reason you’re hungry all the time on diets—and how to fix it

How I finally got unstuck and built real momentum that lasted

You’ll walk away with clarity, confidence, and a better understanding of what your body actually needs—not just what social media tells you.

What’s keeping you stuck?
Let’s cut the fluff and get honest.

Welcome to *"I Used To..."* Reclaiming What Matters, where we reflect on the habits and routines we’ve let go of over time and explore which ones we should bring back into our lives. In this episode, we discuss two lists that most of us have: the “Things I’m Glad I Left Behind” list – habits and patterns we’ve outgrown, and the “I Miss That” list – those positive practices and experiences that have slipped away in the hustle of daily life.

From unhealthy food relationships and exercise routines to those cherished habits we used to embrace, we explore how we can reclaim what truly matters and make space for the positive changes that serve us. With practical tips and strategies to reintroduce balance, this episode will inspire you to rediscover the routines and joy that may have been lost in the chaos.

Let’s start prioritizing what matters most and letting go of what no longer serves you.
