Why You’re Not Losing Weight (And What to Do Instead)
Cutting calories and doing more cardio but still not seeing progress? You’re not alone—and here’s what might actually be slowing you down.
If you’ve been cutting calories, skipping snacks, and pushing yourself to work out—but the scale won’t budge—it’s not that you’re lazy or doing it wrong. You’re probably just doing too much of what doesn’t work.
The truth? A lot of people are eating too little, not enough protein, skipping meals, or doing random workouts they found online. That’s not a plan—that’s panic.
Here’s what does work:
Eat actual meals. Skipping breakfast and snacking all day isn’t helping.
Focus on balance: protein, carbs, and fat at every meal.
Train 3–4x a week with intention—not just cardio or stretching.
Be consistent longer than 5 days.
You don’t need a 30-day fix. You need a strategy that respects your life, your body, and your goals. And that’s exactly what I help my clients build.
3 Balanced Meals My Clients Swear By
These meals aren’t trendy—they’re simple, satisfying, and help my clients stay full without overthinking food. Easy to make. Easy to stick with.
Let’s keep it simple. These are real meals my clients go back to again and again—not because they’re trendy, but because they work. They keep you full, don’t take forever to make, and actually taste like food.
1. Breakfast: Eggs + Oats + Fruit
Scrambled eggs, a side of oats with cinnamon or nut butter, and a few berries or half a banana. It’s not fancy, it’s just balanced.
2. Lunch: Protein Bowl
Grilled chicken or shrimp, rice or potatoes, and a veggie mix. Add avocado or a little dressing if you want flavor without guilt.
3. Dinner: Turkey Burger + Roasted Veggies + Sweet Potato
No bun? Cool. Bun? Also cool. This meal hits all your marks and feels like comfort food without knocking you off track.
You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be consistent—and that starts with meals you’ll actually eat.
