In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why waiting until January could be sabotaging your weight loss goals
The negative impact of yo-yo dieting on your metabolism and mental health
How starting now with simple, manageable steps can set you up for success
Why focusing on small changes now can make the holiday season more enjoyable and stress-free
