    Ep93. The First 5kg vs the Last 5kg: What's Actually Different

That's just how fat loss works, and once you understand why, it stops feeling so discouraging. In this episode, we're breaking down exactly why the first 5kg comes off quicker than the rest, what's actually happening in your body during that stage, and why slower progress later on is a sign things are working properly, not a red flag. You'll learn: Why early fat loss often includes a lot of water weightWhat's actually happening metabolically as you get leanerWhy comparing your current progress to your first few weeks isn't fair to yourselfHow to stay motivated once the "easy" phase is overWhat realistic progress looks like the further along you getWalk away with a completely different relationship to those slower weeks. 💚 Love this episode? 💚 Share it on your intagram story and tag me @sami_livestrong   Want to connect? 🤝🏽 Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sami_livestrong/ 💪🏼 Ready to start living a Stronger Life — inside and out?

    Ep91. Stop Chasing Goals, Start Becoming the Person Who Gets Them

    "I'm trying to work out more" and "I'm a person who trains" sound similar, but they lead to completely different outcomes. One is a goal you're chasing. The other is who you are.

    Ep89. The Words You Use Are Quietly Sabotaging You

    "I'm trying to hopefully lose some weight." Sit with that sentence for a second. It's full of doubt before you've even started.
