Ever found yourself eating one cookie, then throwing in the towel completely because "I'll just start fresh on Monday"? You're stuck in the cycle that keeps millions trapped in weight-loss purgatory.

This raw, no-BS episode exposes the toxic lie that's been keeping you from sustainable weight loss: the all-or-nothing mentality. I break down why "starting over" is actually training you to quit, and how this exact mindset kept me spinning my wheels for decades before I finally lost 140 pounds and kept it off.

The truth is embarrassingly simple: weight loss success isn't about perfection—it's about how quickly you bounce back after an inevitable slip-up. Think about it: would you tell your kid to drop out of school after getting one C on a math test? Of course not. Yet we treat our health journeys like pass/fail exams where one misstep equals total failure.

I share my three-step formula for building what I call your "bounce-back muscle"—the real secret to lasting results. You'll learn how to separate a moment of indulgence from a full-blown derailment, how to track progress without obsessing over perfection, and why Monday doesn't have any magical powers to transform your life.

Whether you've been struggling for decades or just want to approach weight loss with a healthier mindset, this episode gives you actionable steps to break the restart cycle. Stop waiting for the perfect moment to get your act together. Your only job is to make the next choice a little better than the last one.
