Show Notes

In this solo episode, I share a sneak peek from Chapter 11 of my upcoming book, Your Fat Loss Journey Starts Here, where I discuss fat loss plateaus. I talk about common causes of plateaus—such as tracking inaccuracies, metabolic adaptation, and fading consistency—and provide strategies to overcome them. Whether navigating a plateau or just curious about why progress slows down, this episode offers insights to help you stay on track.

Remember to pre-order my book, which will be released on January 4th!
