Episode 389: Fat Loss Feedback - I’m Building Muscle Why Isn’t the Scale Moving?
Description
Episode Overview
When you’ve been putting in the work—eating better, moving your body more, staying consistent—but the scale won’t budge, it’s easy to feel confused or frustrated. In today’s Q+A episode, we’re answering a member’s question about why her weight hasn’t changed after a few weeks of eating less and exercising more.
We break down the most common reasons the scale might stall (even when you’re doing “everything right”), the role of perception vs. reality in fat loss, and why meaningful changes often take longer than expected. If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I doing something wrong?” this episode is for you.
