    Topics covered:

    • The tweak this week is more about where your focus is at. Are you focused on maximizing and being consistent?
    • This week is all about what eating to satisfaction feels like for you.
    • We are in the messy middle when it's more about the feelings and associations and less about what you eat and when.
    • Are you all in? Do you have all that you need so you know what to do to keep moving forward?
    • The Messy Middle: It's a great time to check in with yourself and note what is working for you and what you need to finish strong.
    • You are exactly where you need to be and we are here for you!
    • Weight loss is about consistency and momentum. Giving up is not going to serve you.
    • Take a step back: there is so much you can do for yourself!
    • Tune into your body and don't overthink it!
    • Eating to satisfaction - what does this mean to you now?
    • Downsizing one last time next week: Let's keep it simple, don't overcomplicate it, or future trip!
    • Don't freak out! Embrace the tweak each week by going all-in!
