Description

In this episode, I’m diving into one of the most frustrating parts of fat loss: thinking you’re in a deficit… but your body’s like, “lol, nah.”

We’ll unpack why weight loss isn’t linear, why maintenance isn’t a magic number (it’s a range), and how your body quietly adapts to small calorie drops without touching your fat stores.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but still not seeing results — this’ll help you understand why, and what to do next.

You’re not broken. You’re just playing by rules no one ever explained.

Time Stamps:
00:01   Why weight loss isn’t linear
00:56   Your body has a maintainable range, not a number
02:26   You lowered calories, but didn’t hit a real deficit
03:46   Your body adapts like a budget (and avoids fat loss)
04:51   When the Sprint Phase makes sense
