The 6th Episode in the current weight loss series, Coach Shanna tackles a common challenge we all face: what to do when we've gotten off track with our health goals. Drawing from her own recent experience with birthday celebrations and travel disrupting her routine, Shanna shares practical wisdom on how to recommit to yourself and your goals without shame or self-judgment.
What You'll Learn:
Why the "fallen off the wagon" metaphor is harmful and promotes all-or-nothing thinking
How to face reality with grace by acknowledging where you are without judgment
The importance of self-forgiveness in your health journey
How to extract valuable lessons from periods of inconsistency
Practical steps to recommit to your habits from a place of love, not shame
Why progress matters more than perfection in sustainable health transformation
Key Points:
There is factually no wagon to fall off of - life is a continuous journey with natural variations
No single meal or decision ruins your progress - it's the overall direction that matters
"Negative self-talk does not lead to positive action"
You are loved by God regardless of your health choices
The three-step process for recommitment: Start where you are, commit to what you'll do consistently, and do it all from a place of love
Journal Prompts:
