    Losing Friends While Losing Weight (with Marisa Hamalian)

    Weight loss changes so much more than just your body… sometimes it changes the people around you too. In this deeply honest episode, I sit down with my client Marisa, who has lost an incredible 105 pounds and has maintained that transformation for the last year and a half. While Marissa lost her first 30 pounds before joining the Get Fit With Mer program, we walked through the rest of her journey together and what unfolded went far beyond nutrition and fitness. This conversation dives into a side of weight loss that almost nobody talks about: how changing your lifestyle can completely shift your friendships and relationships. What happens when you’ve always been known as the “funny fat friend”… and suddenly people start seeing you differently? What happens when you haven’t changed much at your core but the way others respond to you does? Marisa vulnerably shares the emotional reality of navigating friendship loss, feeling misunderstood, and learning how to step into a healthier version of herself without losing who she has always been. Together, we also open up about our own experiences with how massive life changes impact the relationships that stay friendships, marriage, and the people closest to us. If you’ve ever felt lonely in your growth, grieved relationships that no longer fit, or struggled to find people who align with the version of you you’re becoming… this episode is for you. We also share practical advice for navigating these transitions, building meaningful new friendships, and moving forward without shrinking yourself to make others comfortable. This is the raw, real side of transformation..the part nobody prepares you for.

    The 4 Biggest Weight Loss Mistakes That Kept Me Stuck

    In this episode, I’m sharing the 4 biggest weight loss mistakes that kept me stuck for years, the very things that delayed my progress and kept me trapped in the exhausting cycle of starting over, giving up, and wondering why nothing was truly changing. These mistakes impacted me in four major ways: 1. My Mindset — Relying on someone else to do it with meI learned the hard way that no one could do this journey for me. Everything changed the moment I stopped waiting for someone else and chose myself. 2. My Nutrition — Restricting without truly learningI knew how to diet, but I didn’t actually understand nutrition. I spent years restricting instead of learning how to fuel my body in a sustainable way. 3. My Continued Progress — Working hard, but not smarterI thought working harder was always the answer, but without understanding how to support my metabolism, I was unknowingly making long-term progress much harder. 4. The Support I Wish I Had — Not hiring an expert soonerLooking back, one of the biggest things I wish I had done was ask for help earlier. The right guidance could have saved me years of confusion, frustration, and feeling stuck. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything you can but still not seeing lasting change, this episode is for you. My hope is that by sharing the mistakes I made, you’ll avoid the same detours and feel empowered to create change that actually lasts. ---------------------------------------- Hire me as your online weight loss coach 🫶🏼✨ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.getfitwithmer.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow me on instagram 🩷☺️ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/getfitwithmer_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/thewholeheartedjourney_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe to my YouTube 💌 - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/getfitwithmer

    Working for God vs. Walking With God

    In this episode, we dive deep into the tension between working for God and walking with God. Are we constantly performing, striving, and trying to do more for God… yet somehow still feeling distant from Him? We unpack how striving, overworking, and constantly trying to “earn” our purpose can slowly drown out the voice of God. Sometimes we become so focused on doing things for Him that we forget to simply be with Him. This episode is not about avoiding work for God. It’s about learning how to truly walk with Him first so He can lead the work through you instead of you trying to force it on your own. Along the way, we reflect on the powerful story shared in The Case for Christ and how one woman simply being obedient and listening to where she felt led to go ended up becoming part of a moment that changed countless lives forever. Because of one moment… one act of obedience… Lee Strobel, a former investigative journalist determined to disprove Christianity, eventually became one of the most well-known Christian authors and apologists in the world. Today, he is known for books like The Case for Christ and The Case for Heaven, with over 18 million copies sold across more than 40 languages. Sometimes we forget that God does not need our performance. He wants our presence, our obedience, and our willingness to listen when He speaks. If you’ve been feeling spiritually exhausted, distant from God, overwhelmed by striving, or stuck trying to “do more,” this episode is a reminder that maybe God isn’t asking you to work harder… maybe He’s simply asking you to walk with Him. ---------------------------------------- Hire me as your online weight loss coach 🫶🏼✨ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.getfitwithmer.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow me on instagram 🩷☺️ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/getfitwithmer_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/thewholeheartedjourney_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe to my YouTube 💌 - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/getfitwithmer

    Today’s episode is a raw and honest conversation about the emotional reality right after weight loss. After losing 120 pounds naturally, I realized that even though my body changed dramatically, there were still mental and emotional challenges I never expected to face. Not because I hated myself before honestly, I was confident before losing weight but because massive change comes with emotions, pressures, identity shifts, and struggles that nobody really prepares you for. In this episode, we’re talking about: What life mentally feels like right after major weight lossThe pressure of maintaining your resultsBody dysmorphia and changing body imageHow my approach to nutrition and workouts evolvedThe unexpected thoughts and emotions that can come after transformationWhat I still struggle with today even years laterIf you’ve ever wondered what happens emotionally after the transformation photos, this episode is for you 🤍 ---------------------------------------- Hire me as your online weight loss coach 🫶🏼✨ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.getfitwithmer.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow me on instagram 🩷☺️ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/getfitwithmer_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/thewholeheartedjourney_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe to my YouTube 💌 - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/getfitwithmer

    How to Avoid Loose Skin During Weight Loss

    Loose skin is one of the biggest fears people have when starting a weight loss journey… and honestly? I understand why. In this episode, we’re having a REAL conversation about loose skin, muscle mass, genetics, stretch marks, rapid weight loss, collagen, and the things that may actually help support your skin during a transformation journey. But I also want to be extremely honest before you listen: Loose skin is NOT always fully preventable. You can do “everything right,” lose weight slowly, strength train, prioritize protein, build muscle, hydrate, support your skin, and still experience loose skin especially after significant weight loss, pregnancy, genetics, age, or years of stretched skin. I know this personally because despite everything I did throughout my 120-pound weight loss journey, I still have loose skin too. This episode is not about “perfect prevention.” It’s about understanding what MAY help reduce the severity of loose skin as much as possible while also learning how to approach your body with realism, grace, and compassion throughout the process. If loose skin has ever scared you away from changing your life, I hope this episode helps you approach the conversation with more education, less fear, and a healthier perspective overall. ---------------------------------------- Hire me as your online weight loss coach 🫶🏼✨ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.getfitwithmer.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow me on instagram 🩷☺️ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/getfitwithmer_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/thewholeheartedjourney_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe to my YouTube 💌 - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/getfitwithmer

    The Art of Saying No & Doing It Anyway

    In this episode, we’re talking about what it means to stop holding yourself back and finally start doing the things that scare you. The truth is, most of us spend so much time waiting until we feel ready, confident, less anxious, less scared, or more prepared before we make a change in our lives. But that moment honestly rarely comes. Growth is uncomfortable. Change is uncomfortable. Trying something new is uncomfortable. Nobody truly knows what they’re doing when they first start. We learn as we go. We grow through what we go through. This episode is about learning how to stop letting fear make your decisions for you. Saying no to the habits, mindsets, and comfort zones that keep you stuck… and choosing to move forward anyway, even if it scares you. Because the life you want is usually on the other side of the things you’re most afraid to do. ---------------------------------------- Hire me as your online weight loss coach 🫶🏼✨ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.getfitwithmer.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow me on instagram 🩷☺️ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/getfitwithmer_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.instagram.com/thewholeheartedjourney_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe to my YouTube 💌 - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/getfitwithmer
