Diets teach you how to lose weight. They don't teach you skills to maintain your weight long after the diet ends. In this episode, Megan explains why so many women struggle because they haven't learned the skills yet. You'll also learn why replacing the word "should" with "want" is important for changing the way you approach your health goals and your mindset.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why knowing what to do isn't enough to create lasting weight loss.
  • The difference between dieting skills and lifelong health skills.
  • Why "I should have this figured out by now" is keeping you stuck.
  • How to stop start building sustainable habits.
  • Why lasting weight loss comes from practicing skills - not perfection.
