359: Overcoming the Scale Obsession: How to Track Progress without Losing Your Mind

“Why does the number on the scale have so much power over us?” In this episode, I explore a challenge many of us face—the scale and the emotional rollercoaster it creates in our fitness journey. I’ll explain how our attachment to that number can derail our progress and lead to emotional highs and lows. You’ll learn why obsessing over the scale can be more damaging than we often realize, and why simply throwing it away isn’t always the answer. Instead, I’ll share how to detach from the scale emotionally and find more empowering ways to track your progress. If the scale has left you feeling frustrated or defeated, this episode is for you—let’s change the way we approach it.Find show notes at bicepsafterbabies.com/359Follow me on Instagram and Tiktok!Links:bicepsafterbabies.com/waitlistIf you are ready to hear about the secrets that other macro coaches won't tell you, then join me for my LIVE Workshop, Confidence In Your Numbers, on January 30th and January 31st, where I will teach you the secrets of setting and adjusting your macros.Gain access for 50% off here at bicepsafterbabies.com/confidence

358: Macros and Mindset: Why You Can't Have One Without the Other

In this episode, we’re diving into the essential connection between macros and mindset—because you can’t have one without the other. While many focus purely on strategy, like tracking macros and structuring workouts, real transformation happens when mindset and tools come together.

Plus, we’ll explore key mindset shifts that drive consistency, break the cycle of self-sabotage, and create lasting change. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a start-and-stop pattern or wondered whether to prioritize mindset or strategy, this episode will bring the clarity you need.
