Why “Getting Back on Track” Is the Wrong Goal

How many times have you told yourself, “I just need to get back on track”?

After a weekend of eating more than planned.
After a holiday.
After a stressful week.
After missing a few workouts.

But what if the idea of “getting back on track” is actually keeping you stuck in the yo-yo dieting cycle?

In this episode, we unpack why the all-or-nothing mindset can turn one meal, one day, or one weekend into weeks of feeling like you've failed.

We explore why sustainable fat loss isn't about being perfect—it’s about learning how to keep going when life doesn't go according to plan.
