Why Maintenance is Challenging: Key Reasons and Solutions

Macros Made Easy with Emily Field RD

Have you ever struggled with eating "enough" after a weight loss journey?

Trust me, you're not alone. Society often pushes the narrative that our worth is tied to our weight, which makes eating more after a weight loss phase seem daunting.

In this episode, I'm diving into the importance of adequate nutrition post-weight loss. I'll help you shift this “weight loss at all times” mindset and bust common myths, like the idea that maintaining your weight means giving up on health goals.

Here are some of the topics I cover:

• (1:10) What it really means to be in a maintenance phase - and who should consider one?
• (9:10) The truth behind common misconceptions about maintaining your weight.
• (15:30) Challenges that keep people stuck in the restriction mentality and how to break free.
• (18:00) Actionable tips to navigate a maintenance phase and build a sustainable, balanced approach to your health.

Transitioning to maintenance isn't just about holding the line; it's a journey filled with its own set of challenges and rewards. By understanding these aspects, we can create a lasting, healthy lifestyle that goes beyond the numbers on the scale.

Thanks for listening! Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to get more advice for reaching your health goals with a macros approach.
