In this episode, Dr. Steve and his wife, Theresa, explore how planning ahead can make all the difference in your weight-loss journey. They talk about why it’s so important to know your “why,” how clearing out tempting, unhealthy foods can set you up for success, and the power of simple meal planning to reduce stress and decision fatigue. They keep it real about the ups and downs everyone faces and offer easy, practical tips to help you stay consistent and build habits that last. If you’ve struggled to stick with healthy changes before, this episode will give you the tools and motivation to finally break through.
