You’re doing your best to eat well, move more, and get back to feeling like yourself again. But when you step on the scale, it feels stuck. The harder you try, the more frustrating it gets.
Here’s the truth: weight loss after cancer is a different journey than weight loss before cancer. Your body has been through surgeries, medications, hormone changes, and inflammation — and all of that changes the way weight comes off.
In this episode of The Flourish After Cancer Podcast, I break down the 3 keys every survivor needs to know if they want to lose weight in a way that actually works after cancer treatment.
⚠️ This is a must-listen if: • You feel like the scale won’t budge no matter what you try • You’re confused by all the “rules” around what to eat for cancer recovery and prevention • You want strategies that support both healing and weight loss
💊 In this episode, you’ll learn: • Why patience and mindset are the #1 foundation for seeing results • How protein (and the right nutrition) supports metabolism, healing, and fat loss • Why strength training is the secret weapon most survivors overlook • The bonus “hidden keys” that make weight loss easier • How to measure progress in ways that go far beyond the number on the scale
💡 You’ll leave this episode with: • A clear, realistic outline for losing weight after cancer • Confidence that your body can change — even if it feels harder than before • Motivation to stop giving up at week 4 and finally see the results you’ve been working for
