    113. If I had to start over on my weight loss journey… here’s what I would do.

    Weight loss after kids can feel so different than it did before becoming a mom.  You try to eat less, work harder, and “get back on track,” but instead you feel exhausted, hungry, and stuck.  In this episode, I share exactly what I would do if I had to start over on my weight loss journey after my 3rd baby, including the simple habits that helped me lose over 60 pounds (and get 25# under my pre-kid weight) without cutting carbs, doing long workouts, or falling into all-or-nothing thinking. What to Listen For Section: (10 different points) Why weight loss after kids often feels harder, even when you’re trying harder How protein helps with fullness, lean muscle, metabolism, and cravings Why a consistent eating schedule can support blood sugar and make weight loss easier The power of 20-minute strength workouts for busy moms Why simple, repeatable meals reduce decision fatigue and help you stay consistent The supplement routine I used to stop forgetting my vitamins How to build habits one at a time instead of trying to overhaul your life Why reducing alcohol can improve sleep, cravings, energy, and weight loss progress This episode is a powerful reminder that weight loss after kids does not have to come from restriction, perfection, or starting over every Monday.  Press play now, subscribe to the podcast, and share this episode with a mama who needs encouragement today. --------------------------------------------- 💛 Explore all programs and resources: https://linktr.ee/brooke.miller.nutrition Come say hi on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/nutrition.for.mamas/ Subscribe to Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BrookeMMiller Free Nutrition Workshops For Moms: https://www.busymommeals.com/free-workshops-for-moms Join Busy Mom Meals: High protein 15 minute or less meals: https://www.busymommeals.com/monthly  Browse my Supplement & Vitamin Recommendations here:  I’ve organized the vitamins and supplements I recommend most often (and personally take) into my dietitian-curated supplement store so it’s easy to find the exact brands I trust.

    112. Why Investing in Your Health Matters as a Mom

    You keep telling yourself… “I’ll focus on my health when life slows down.” I have a hard question to ask you. Has it actually slowed down?

Small, simple shifts can help you feel like yourself again… more energized, more patient, more you. If this hits home, share it with another mom who needs to hear it and don’t forget to follow.
