Welcome to Empowered Radio.

I am your host, Emma Montgomery, an online nutrition and fitness coach and creator of Shred

with M. Each week we'll talk all things nutrition, training, and mindset. You'll be able to take my tips and strategies and apply what you learn to see results

with both your body and your mind.

So without further ado, let's jump into the episode.

Hello, welcome back.

So quick reminder before I get into the episode today, not today, this weekend, today's Friday, or you'll be hearing this on Friday.

This weekend is the last weekend of the 20% off for Happy, the supplements.

So I'll link that in the description, but the code is mom 20. And it's 20% off

everything but subscription. So definitely take advantage of that to stock up. But on to today's

episode. And today we're going to talk about things that are absolutely just destroying your progress

when we're talking about like weight loss specifically.

These are all things that are just killing your progress.

And a lot of times we don't even realize that it is.

So this isn't one of those like I'm trying to beat you up or kick you while you're down.

This is hopefully light bulb moments and things like, oh, I never even realized that I was doing

that or that that was killing my progress.

So these are in no particular order.

But the first one I have on here is you think that when you hit a plateau, so if you've lost

some weight and then things like you hit a plateau and things are leveling off, you think

that it's not working and you respond by dropping your calories way too aggressively, too quickly.

So like I said, you know, weight loss is moving and then you come to a halt.
