    Ep79. The Phase Every Woman on a fat loss journey needs, but NOBODY Wants to Do

    If you've lost weight before.. maybe multiple times… but you always end up back where you started, this episode is going to explain exactly why. The missing piece isn't more discipline or a better diet. It's the phase that almost every woman skips completely: maintenance. In this episode, I break down why jumping from one cut straight into the next is the very thing keeping you stuck, and what a real maintenance phase looks like. You'll learn: What a maintenance phase actually is and why it mattersThe physiological reason your body fights back after a cutWhy skipping maintenance is the root cause of the yo-yo cycleHow long you actually need to spend in maintenanceWhat to do during a maintenance phase so it doesn't feel like giving upThis is the episode for every woman who has lost the same weight three times and can't figure out why. 💚 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?

    Ep78. You're Not Eating Enough — And It's Wrecking Your Results

    You're doing everything right. You're eating less, you're training hard, you're staying consistent. And you are completely stuck. No progress on the scale, flat sessions, exhausted all the time, and no idea what's going wrong. Here's a possibility most women never consider: you're not eating too much. You're eating too little. In this episode, I break down chronic under-eating, why it happens, what it does to your metabolism, your hormones, and your training, and how to start eating more without the fear of undoing your results. You'll learn: The real signs you're chronically under-eating (they're not what you think)What actually happens to your metabolism and hormones when you eat too little for too longWhy the body's response to severe restriction makes fat loss harder over timeHow to start eating more gradually and rebuild your metabolismThe mindset shift that makes eating enough feel empowering, not scaryWalk away with permission to eat more — and a practical plan for doing it the right way. 💚 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?

    Ep77. Stop Waiting to Feel Motivated and Start Doing This Instead

    Waiting until you feel motivated to train is like waiting for the perfect weather to go for a walk. It's not coming. And the women who've built the bodies and lives they love didn't get there because they always felt like it, they got there because they showed up anyway. In this episode, I'm getting real about motivation, discipline, and what actually drives consistent action, including my own experience with days I don't feel like training either. You'll learn: Why motivation is unreliable and discipline is the real driverWhat to do on the days you genuinely don't feel like itHow to stop identifying as "someone who doesn't like exercise"The mindset shift that makes consistency feel less like a battlePractical strategies for low-motivation days that actually workWalk away ready to stop waiting, and start moving. 💚 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?

    Ep75. Setting Up for a Successful Fat Loss Phase

    You've started a fat loss phase more times than you can count, and every time, something derails it by week three. The problem usually isn't willpower, and it isn't the plan.

You'll learn: Why your starting point matters more than your planThe non-negotiables you need in place before cutting caloriesHow to set a realistic timeline so you stop quitting halfway throughWhy your mindset going in will make or break your resultsThe red flags that mean you're not actually ready to cut yetWalk away with a clear pre-phase checklist so your next fat loss phase is the one that actually sticks. 💚 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?

    Ep72. How Much Should You Actually Be Eating? Here's How to Find Out

    How many calories should I eat? It's one of the most searched questions in nutrition, and most of the answers online are either completely generic, dangerously low, or so complicated they're useless. The truth is, there is no universal number. But there is a logical, practical way to figure out yours, and it's not as complicated as the internet makes it. In this episode, I walk through exactly how to find your own calorie target in plain English, no maths degree required, and explain the key concepts that change everything: TDEE, NEAT, and why most women are unintentionally eating far less than they should be. You'll learn: What TDEE actually is and the four components that make it upWhy your calorie needs are unique to you (and why generic recommendations are useless)How to estimate your maintenance calories without needing a labThe practical method for setting a fat loss deficit that actually worksWhy most women who feel stuck are eating too little... not too muchWalk away with a clear starting point for your calories, and the confidence to actually use it. 💚 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?
