215 The Danger Zone — What Happens After You’ve Lost the Weight (And How to Stop Reverting to Old Habits)

You hit your goal. You feel amazing. You think you’ve cracked it… but then the old patterns start creeping back in. Sound familiar?

Welcome to The Danger Zone – that sneaky little phase no one really talks about: after the weight comes off, but before your habits have truly changed at a deeper level.

In this week’s episode, we’re diving into:

  • Why weight loss success often creates a false sense of safety
  • The sneaky ways old habits slide back in when the urgency disappears
  • How to stop yo-yoing and start evolving

You’ll learn why your brain is wired to pull you back to the familiar, and what to do about it. Plus, we’ll unpack the real work of long-term transformation — rewriting your identity, aligning with your values, and creating new emotional coping strategies that last.

This episode is for you if:

  • You’ve reached a goal and now feel a bit directionless or “off track”
  • You’ve experienced the cycle of progress… followed by slipping back
  • You’re ready to break free from “before and after” thinking and create a new normal

🎧 COMING SOON: I’ve got something very special brewing that’s going to help you navigate this phase with more clarity, ease, and confidence — stay tuned in the next couple of weeks for all the juicy details!
