Join us as we dive into an honest and empowering discussion about weight regain and how to tackle it head-on. Mel and Kellie are speaking with Mabel from @beyondthesleeveacademy on IG. This is the second time we've had her on, and we’re thrilled to share her insights with you.☕ Step 1: Reflection Grab a cup of tea, sit down, and write down your thoughts. Reflect on your journey and identify what caused the weight regain. Understanding the why is the first step to making a change.🕵️‍♀️ Step 2: Become a Detective Examine the facts of your situation without getting emotional. When did the weight regain start? What changes occurred in your life? Write down everything to get a clear picture.📋 Step 3: Create a Plan Based on your findings, create a plan tailored to your specific needs. This plan should address the root causes of your weight regain and include realistic and sustainable actions.🏃‍♀️ Step 4: Implement the Plan Put your plan into action. This is where many people struggle, but remember, consistency is key. Adjust as needed, but keep moving forward.📝 Step 5: Evaluate and Adjust After a set period (we recommend two weeks for habits, one month for weight), evaluate your progress. Adjust your plan based on what's working and what's not.Why You’ll Love This Video:Real Stories: Genuine conversations about the ups and downs of weight loss.Practical Tips: Actionable steps to help you regain control of your health journey.Empowerment: Encouragement to keep moving forward, no matter where you are on your journey.Don't forget to LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE for more health and wellness content.OSLP strives to educate and inform the bariatric community and those with predetermined ideas about weight loss surgery.  Hoyefit Giveaway: giveaway.hoyefit.com/oslp OSLP Connections:OSLP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oursleevedlifepodcastOSLP Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@oursleevedlifepodcastOSLP Email List: https://www.oursleevedlifepodcast.comOSLP Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/OSLPJBY2023 Replay: https://www.jbyawards.com. OSLP Recommended Products:OSLP Amazon Store -  https://www.amazon.com/shop/oursleevedlifepodcastProcare Health - https://procarenow.com  Just Meats - https://www.justmeats.com/Live Uba - https://www.liveuba.com/oslpDive Bar Nutrition https://divebarnutrition.com/discount/oslpDevotion Nutrition - https://devotionnutrition.com/SABP Weightloss - https://sabpweightloss.comTreVita MX Medical Tourisim - http://ambassador.trevita.com/osl OSLP Discount Codes@procarenow OSLP⁠ - 15% off@divebarnutrition OSLP@liveuba [email protected] OSLP25 $25 off your purchase@builtbar OSLP⁠@devotionnutrition OSLP5@obvi OSLP15⁠⁠
