Things We Wish We Knew Earlier (Fat Loss Edition)
In this episode, Marisa and Vanessa share the things they wish they knew about fat loss before starting their own journeys. They discuss how fat loss isn’t just about eating less and moving more, and how factors like metabolism, hormones, stress, and sleep play a huge role. They also talk about the dangers of the all-or-nothing mindset and the importance of learning to incorporate your favorite foods without guilt. Plus, they share why slower fat loss is more sustainable and better for mental health, and why fat loss doesn’t automatically lead to confidence or happiness.
They also reveal why the scale isn’t the best progress measure and offer advice on how to track success through other markers like strength, energy, and how your clothes fit. They explain why you can’t stay in a fat loss phase forever and the importance of maintaining a healthy metabolism. Tune in for practical tips and the lessons they’ve learned on their own journeys to help you make fat loss a more sustainable and empowering experience.
