Anyone else nail their meals and workouts Monday through Thursday, only to have a long weekend (hello, 4th of July BBQs, cocktails, and late nights!) throw you way off track? 🙋‍♀️ Yeah, I’ve totally been there—every Friday, the wheels come off, and by Monday the guilt is REAL.
This week, we're getting brutally honest about why weekends are the #1 source of summer weight gain (spoiler: it's not lack of willpower, it's sneaky triggers!). From emotional eating to mindless snacking, I’m sharing the exact 3-step system I (and my clients) use to CRUSH self-sabotage—without giving up fun, dessert, or any holiday celebrations.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why you spiral on weekends, and how to spot your biggest triggers
- My go-to “speed bump” strategies that stop autopilot eating in its tracks
- How to harness the power of the pause—yup, 90 seconds can change everything
- How to handle emotional, social, and environmental triggers like a pro
- Proof that you don’t need to be perfect to make progress (goodbye, all-or-nothing thinking!)
Ready to leave the old “start over Monday” cycle in the dust? Grab these simple tips, take your “speed bump” strategy for a spin, and let’s celebrate those wins together!
xoxo,
Jackie
