Lost weight only to gain it back? Tired of quick-fix diets that leave you weaker, not stronger? What if real success has nothing to do with the scale?

Dr. Mikki Williden, a registered nutritionist, researcher, and host of the Mikkipedia Podcast, joins me, and we break down why most people are chasing the wrong metrics. We discuss why weight loss and lasting transformation are completely different skill sets, and how to develop the competencies that actually keep the results you’ve worked for. This conversation will change the way you measure progress and help you build not just a smaller body, but a stronger, healthier, and more capable one.

Today, you’ll learn all about:

0:00 – Intro
4:06 – Why weight loss isn’t the real goal
7:44 – The danger of regaining weight
11:18 – Weight loss as a learned skill
14:47 – Meal prep and planning as foundation
18:53 – Building mindset through daily input
22:08 – Shifting identity to strength and health
40:24 – The truth about rapid fat loss
47:36 – Why maintenance is not a free-for-all
57:35 – Flexibility, sustainability, and final takeaways
