How to Handle a Weekend without Losing Progress
04/23/25 • 22 min
You head into the weekend with the best of intentions.
You want to feel free, but not reckless. You want to stay on track, but not obsess.
You’re tired of starting over every Monday, wondering why it feels so hard to enjoy your weekend and honor your goals.
If that sounds like you, this episode is for you.
This week, we’re talking about how to handle a weekend without losing progress, so you can stop swinging between “all in” and “off the rails,” and start building real consistency with healthy eating, even when life isn’t perfectly planned.
Inside, I’ll walk you through:
→ What to do before the weekend starts to feel grounded and intentional → How to handle in-the-moment food decisions without spiraling → What to say when social pressure kicks in—and how to honor your choices without guilt → How to reset without the drama if you do overeat or feel off track
You’ll hear what mindset truly creates consistency, what my most successful clients do on weekends, and how to approach eating out, indulgence, and real life without undoing your hard work.
Because it’s not about being perfect — it’s about creating patterns with food you can actually live with.

Previous Episode

Why You Can't Lose the Weight (And What To Do Instead)
You’ve tried the plans. You’ve followed the rules. You’ve done everything “right.”
And yet...the weight still isn’t coming off.
If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you.
Because despite what diet culture has taught you, weight loss isn’t just about eating less and moving more. And if your body has been holding on, it’s not because you’re lazy, broken, or doing it wrong.
It’s because there’s a missing phase of permanent weight loss that almost no one talks about, and without it, lasting change just won’t stick.
In this episode, we’ll explore:
→ Why your body might be resisting weight loss (even when you’re doing “everything right”) → How to stop trying harder and start working with your body instead → The emotional groundwork that makes weight loss sustainable (and way less exhausting) → What actually changes when your body feels safe enough to let go
If it’s felt like you’re constantly pushing uphill, this episode is going to be a breath of fresh air and a whole new way forward.
Because when you stop rushing and start trusting, your body will meet you there. And the results? They’ll come easier than you think.
