You've Hit Your Goal Weight — But You're Not Done Yet

You've Hit Your Goal Weight — But You're Not Done Yet

Author: The Fasting Method April 2, 2026 Duration: 4:22

You've hit your goal weight… so why does it still feel fragile?

🎙️ In this bonus episode, Coach Heather Shuker explains the phase nobody talks about — the period after weight loss but before true weight stability.

Even though you've reached your goal, your body may still be trying to pull you back to your previous weight. This is the most vulnerable stage of the journey — where regain is most likely to happen.

Heather breaks down why this happens, how your body's set point plays a role, and why waiting until you've finished losing weight to think about maintenance is one of the biggest mistakes people make.
