159. How Bryan Lost Weight (and Kept It Off) As a Busy Dad of 2 Kids
In this episode, I sit down with my client Bryan to talk about the habits, strategies, and mindset shifts that have fueled his most successful fat loss phase yet. We discuss the skills of both eating in a calorie deficit and maintaining weight, how he manages his health and fitness as a busy dad with a demanding career, and why building consistency matters more than perfection. Bryan shares how standardizing meals, making fitness a family activity, and tracking progress beyond the scale have helped him lose weight, keep it off, and feel stronger in everyday life.
