    ”Eat Less, Move More” to Lose Weight is Wrong! (+Restore is Open NOW!)

    "Eat less, move more" is wrong! It's the advice everyone gives for weight loss, and it's incomplete at best. In this episode I break down why eating less actually backfires for so many of us, and the two states your body cycles through that decide whether it lets go of weight or holds onto it.   What you'll learn:   ■ Why "just eat less" can create the exact instability that leads to cravings, grazing, and late night overeating ■ The difference between what I call storage mode and release mode ■ Two real Restore member stories: one about catching a shame spiral before it started, one about building something sustainable around real physical limitations ■ My own recent realization about a subconscious "skip dinner" habit I didn't even know I was still running   ■■■■■ Set Point Restore, my coaching membership, is open for enrollment this week only. Doors close Friday, July 31st, and won't reopen until October. Join in the first three days (by Wednesday, July 29th at 9:00 PM Mountain) and you'll also get 4 bonus PDFs I've never published anywhere else.

    The video you keep asking me for: what I actually eat in a day, protein and all.

    I Lost 10 Pounds in 21 Days and It Started With a Setback, Not a Plan

    I lost 10 pounds in 21 days, and it started with my weight going up. This episode is about what almost happened to my head in the middle of the setback, not just the number. What you'll hear: Why the weight gain wasn't fat overnight (hello, prednisone number three this year) The two psychology traps that turn a normal setback into a permanent belief about your body My actual year: five setbacks, including a hysterectomy and three rounds of prednisone A weird two-day shift in a craving I've had for years Free 60-second food noise quiz, no email required: setpointscience.com/foodnoise Instagram: instagram.com/setpointscience TikTok: tiktok.com/@setpointscience

    How to Stop Food Noise, Constant Cravings, and Hunger Without Using Willpower

    Cravings and food noise aren't a willpower problem. They're usually two problems stacked on top of each other: not enough protein, and too many food rules.  In this episode I break down why gritting your teeth harder was never going to fix it, and the four shifts I actually use (and teach inside Set Point Restore) to quiet food noise without white-knuckling anything:  - Reality Planning - Food Neutralization - Hunger + Fullness Retraining - Gentle Nighttime Hunger I also get into what it was actually like navigating this while on prednisone, a medication that's a documented appetite-wrecker, and why the goal was never perfection, just a rhythm solid enough to hold up when life doesn't cooperate.  If you want help figuring out where your own food noise is coming from, I've got room for one more private client right now.  Free 15-minute Two-Step Call: setpointscience.com/twostep  I'm Cheri Alberts: weight loss coach, breast cancer survivor, mom of three.

    I Am An Obese Weight Loss Coach. Wait, What?!

    I am an obese weight loss coach... and I know exactly how that sounds. In this episode of the Set Point Science podcast, I’m talking about what it means to coach weight loss from inside the process: not from the finish line, not from an after picture, and not from some perfectly polished transformation story. Because the messy middle is where weight loss actually happens. In this episode, I talk about: Why I’m using the word “obese” plainly, not dramatically Why BMI and body composition both matter, but neither tells the whole story Why I don’t believe you need an “after picture” to be credible What real motivation actually comes from Why complicated lives need sustainable weight loss methods Why I teach steadiness, satiety, and lowering food noise instead of punishment or perfectionism If you’re in the middle too, beginning again, trying again, figuring it out again, or somewhere you don’t even have a name for yet, this episode is for you. How loud is your food noise? Take my free Food Noise Quiz: https://setpointscience.com/foodnoise Subscribe for more conversations about quieting food noise, building real satiety, and creating weight loss that can survive your actual life. Until next time: you don’t have to wait for the after picture to tell the truth. Start where you are. That’s where the work begins. ‍ #obeseweightlosscoach #foodnoise #sustainableweightloss #midlifeweightloss #weightlossjourney ‍

    I’m a Weight Loss Coach: 5 Things I’ll NEVER Do To Lose Weight Ever Again

    I used to be very slim while following a strict whole foods plant-based diet with no added salt, oil, or sugar. And after a decade of living that way, years of coaching women through weight loss, cancer treatment, medical half-menopause, midlife, motherhood, stress, and my own healing from food noise… there are some things I will never do again to lose weight. In this episode, I’m sharing the 5 things I’m done doing forever for weight loss: Using fasting or strict challenges as my main weight loss strategy Forcing myself through plant-based, no-flavor suffering Rearranging my entire social life around food rules Pretending my real life circumstances don’t matter Chasing fast weight loss at the expense of food peace Because if a weight loss method makes you more isolated, more obsessed, more disconnected, or more afraid of food, it is not actually healing the root problem. I still want weight loss. I still care deeply about my health. But I’m no longer willing to trade food peace, self-trust, social connection, or real-life sustainability to get there faster. ‍ If food noise is one of the biggest things you’re trying to understand right now, take my free Food Noise Quiz here: 👉 setpointscience.com/foodnoise You’ll get your result right on the page: *no email required Question for you: What is one thing you are no longer willing to do to lose weight? Not because you’re giving up, but because you finally know better? #FoodNoise #MidlifeWeightLoss #SetPointScience #WeightLossForWomen #FoodPeace #SustainableWeightLoss #ProteinFirst #EmotionalEating #WeightLossMindset #WomenOver40

    My lungs forced me to slow down this week and it brought up something I see all the time in weight loss. We want the body to change on our timeline. But biology does not work that way. In this episode, I’m talking about what getting sick reminded me about food noise, impatience, sustainable weight loss, and why forcing the process often backfires.   If you’ve been feeling frustrated that your body isn’t moving fast enough, this one is for you.   Get the Gentle Weight Loss Starter Guide: https://setpointscience.com/podcastguide   Join the Restore waitlist: https://setpointscience.com/restore

    I Tried Eating 130 g of Protein for 30 Days: Here’s What Happened to My Food Noise

    I tried eating 130 grams of protein per day for 30 days. Not as a diet, not as a macro obsession, and not because I thought protein was magic. I did it because after years of trying to quiet my food noise with more discipline, more volume, more “clean eating,” and more rules, I wanted to know what would happen if I actually changed the structure of my day and made protein the anchor. In this episode, I’m talking about why I chose 130 grams and what surprised me most about the experiment: not muscle soreness, not workouts, not even fullness, but how much quieter my brain felt around food. In this episode: - Why I chose 130 grams of protein per day - Why “eat more protein” was too vague for me - How my years in low-protein, high-volume eating shaped my hunger signals - What happened to my food noise when protein became the anchor - Why fullness and satisfaction are not always the same thing - How this experiment changed the way I think about cravings, discipline, and “enough” If food noise has made you feel broken, out of control, or like you just need more discipline, I hope this episode gives you a different way to think about it. You’re not broken.
