Diet culture doesn’t always show up as a “diet.” Sometimes it sounds like “I can’t have that,” “I’ll start Monday,” or “I ruined it so I might as well keep going.” We get real about how those scripts kept us stuck for decades, and what finally helped us build healthy habits we can actually live with after losing over 100 pounds each.

We walk through the difference between dramatic resets and sustainable weight loss: smaller portions, meal prep that makes eating easier, and the kind of flexibility that keeps you consistent even when sleep is bad or plans change. We also talk honestly about tools like bariatric surgery and GLP-1 medications (including Zepbound) and why they’re helpful for some people, but never a substitute for mindset, nutrition basics, and routines that support long-term weight maintenance.

Then we zoom out to the bigger stuff: the restriction binge cycle, the pressure of the scale, and why health is more than a number. We share how we think about non-scale victories like energy, strength, blood work, and how your clothes fit, plus how we try to raise kids with food awareness instead of food shame. We also call out social media “highlight reel” bodies and why finding authentic support matters.

If any of this hits home, take one next best step and build from there. Subscribe, share this with a friend who’s tired of starting over, and leave a review so more people can find a healthier way forward.

When we look back on our journey, we see a long winding path. Plenty of ups, and downs with NSVs and setbacks. We love and embrace the journey, as we know that every part of it brought us to where we are today. However, we've learned A LOT along the way. And why not share with you all what we would do if we had to start over?!

Listen in as we talk about how we would go about this journey knowing what we do now. We hope this helps anyone new to this journey!

Happy New Year! We are calling it now... 2026 is going to be an EPIC year for both of us (and you too!)!

This year, our goals are quite different from 2025. We had a lot of change last year, which has us shifting what's important to us. Not only that, but for the first time in a long time... our goals are very different from each others.

Hopefully hearing us talk about our goals will help you figure yours out too! Tune in and listen. And make sure you reach out to let us know what your plans are for 2026!

We made it through another year! Thank you all for joining us. We are so grateful for each and every one of you!

This year we decided to do our end of the year wrap up a little differently with more of a casual conversation.

Our one main takeaway for everyone... It is ok if you didn't hit all (or any lol) of your goals. Don't be so hard on yourself!

It's now time to start thinking about 2026 and what you want to get out of it. You get to write the story, so make it a good one!

We hope you all have a gret holiday season, surrounded by friends and family. We look forward to connecting with you all again in 2026! Let's make it the BEST year yet!

The holiday season is upon us! This can bring a lot of anxiety for some... Honestly, for most. Now is the time to start navigating how to handle some of the tough situations.

Most people in the weight loss community are people pleasers by nature. It's what we've always done. But it doesn't typically serve us. The healthiest thing you can do for yourself this holiday season is remove yourself from the role of people pleaser!

It is ok to take a pass on Aunt Suzie's world famous pie (unless it's incredible and you REALLY want it!). It's ok to NOT give in to buying the most expensive gifts. It's ok to decline an invite to a gathering that doesn't align with your goals. Bottom line... it's ok to do what serves YOU!

The first thing you can do to set yourself up for success over the holidays is to set boundaries early on and actually stick to them.

Listen in as we talk through our strategies and what we've learned over the years.

On the next podcast, we will discuss wrapping up 2025 and setting yourself up for 2026.

We hope you all have the best holiday season, with minimal stress!

Our 2025 Retreat has come to an end, and our cups are so full! There is something to be said for a weekend of shared sisterhood. Meeting internet strangers on Thursday and heading home Sunday afternoon with 5 new friends and accountability partners. We are truly humbled and blessed!

Thank you to the women that made the journey and trusted in us to deliver an informative and fun filled weekend. We are so grateful for you! We are looking forward to the next one. We have an idea in mind and can't wait to share it with you!

We've all been there before. The dreaded weight regain! Sometimes it sneaks up on you and sometimes you see it coming but can't seem to stop it. We had a great conversation with Noelle Dawson about her incredible story of losinga significant amount of weight naturally, only to gain it all back and then ultimately decide to go forward with weight loss surgery.

We talked about everything from our struggles with losing weight, to GLP-1 meds, skin removal surgery and everything in between. Noelle has round 1 of skin removal in 2019 and is in Mexico for round 2 as this podcast publishes. Tune in to this episode to hear her story and follow her on Facebook at Noelle Dawson or Instagram at transforming_noelle to see her transformation.

Can you believe that we are already more than halfway through the year??!

We have both been super busy lately... but not too busy to sit down and review where we are with the goals we set for ourselves at the beginning of the year.

We discovered that not all goals are going to be met this year, and that is ok! What is important is that we are still striving for them. It's ok to pivot, or drop a goal that no longer serves you. A LOT can happen in 365 days, and what is most important is that we are striving to be a better version of ourselves EVERY DAY.

So if you need to pivot, go for it! No goals set? you still have time before the year is up. Always better late than never. Don't wait for Mondy, next month or even next year. Start now!
