The go-to podcast for moms trying to lose weight by changing habits instead of doing restrictive diets!
Do you dread seeing yourself in photos? Is getting dressed for date night a struggle because nothing fits? Are you tired of not feeling like yourself since having babies?
Do you struggle with consistency and want to lose weight in a sustainable way that fits your busy lifestyle but still lets you enjoy your favorite foods? Are you sick eating healthy and working out just to see the same number on the scale over and over?
If any of these sound like you, you’re in the right place. Welcome to Sustainable Weight Loss for Moms!
This podcast is all about simple, sustainable weight loss strategies that actually fit into your life—because let’s be honest, if it’s not realistic, it’s not happening. We teach science-based weight loss with a real-life approach that will help you transform your mindset, metabolism, and movement through simple habit changes, so you not only lose weight but also keep it off. Not only that, you’ll have more energy, feel better in your skin again, and have an improved relationship with food and your body.
Hey, I’m Lainey— weight loss dietitian and mom of four boys. After having my third and fourth babies, I desperately desired to lose the belly fat and fit back in my clothes but had no interest in restrictive diets (plus I knew they didn’t work after working with hundreds of women to help them lose weight). I finally cracked the code by shifting my mindset to focusing on what to add, not what to take away.
No tracking, no starving, no all-or-nothing thinking—just smart habits, efficient workouts, and a mindset shift that changed everything. Now, I help moms like you do the same.
Grab your coffee (because let’s be real, we need it), and let’s chat about how to burn fat, get strong, and feel confident again—without giving up chocolate or counting every calorie. Sustainable weight loss starts here!
