  <description>We’ve got about 8 weeks until Christmas, which means losing 8 lbs or about one pound per week is totally realistic!

If your goal is to enjoy the holidays, feel good in your body, and still make progress, this episode gives you a simple roadmap to do it (if you're already doing these and they're not working for you, I hope you'll reach out!)

  <description>Most people can lose weight — but 80–90% regain it within 1–5 years. Why? Because losing it and keeping it off are two completely different skill sets.
In this episode, Dani and Sam break down research from the National Weight Control Registry (10,000+ successful maintainers) and share the 7 key habits that separate regain from long-term success. From daily movement and consistent eating to strength training, sleep, and stress management—you’ll learn exactly what it takes to stay in the successful 10–20% who keep the weight off for good.
If you are struggling to lose weight and KEEP IT OFF, this is a must listen!

In this episode, Kaylie shares how working for a registered dietitian empowered her to make small changes that helped her feel better than she has in years!</p>

<p>In this episode:</p>

<li>Importance of eating enough</li>
<li>Impact of protein</li>
<li>Importance of sustainable habits</li>
<li>Planning ahead</li>
<li>Favorite recipes</li>
<li>Taking imperfect action</li>
</ol>
