5 Mistakes You Might Be Making on Your Health & Fitness Journey

In This Episode, We Cover:

• Why confusion around health and weight loss makes complete sense

• How marketing, misinterpreted studies, and diet culture shaped what we believe

• Why simple strategies done consistently outperform extreme approaches

The 5 Mistakes We Break Down:

1. Your Protein Strategy
   Why “I eat enough protein” often isn’t true — and how prioritizing protein supports fullness, muscle, metabolism, blood sugar, and bone health in midlife.

2. Your Workout Strategy
   Why working hard doesn’t always equal progress — and why strength training is non-negotiable for long-term health, function, and independence.

3. Restriction
   How cutting foods and rigid rules often lead to rebound, burnout, and distrust — and what happens when nothing is off-limits.

4. Your Deadline
   Why treating health like a short-term project creates pressure and all-or-nothing behavior — and what to focus on instead.

5. Your Caloric Intake
   How “healthy eating” can still lead to weight gain, where calories sneak in, and why awareness (not obsession) is powerful.

Key Takeaway:

Progress doesn’t come from doing everything at once.
It comes from awareness → small adjustments → consistency → trust.

This is a long game — and you’re not behind.
