Season 13 - Answering your questions

What happens when we let you run the show?

In this episode of The Weight Loss Podcast, we answer a stack of questions from YouTube, Spotify, our Facebook group and email – no prep, no scripts, just honest answers to the stuff that’s really on your mind.


We dive into things like:


Our thoughts on medical help with weight loss like Duromine, Ozempic and similar meds.


What to do if you’ve lost weight, regained it all, and are trying (again) to get back to your goal.


Fasted training – helpful, harmful, or just overhyped?


An 18-year-old listener struggling with binge–purge patterns and wanting to lose weight and heal their relationship with food.


How to handle injuries, setbacks, sickness and training when your body doesn’t cooperate.


Escaping the “fuck it, I don’t care” spiral, the guilt after overeating, and the shame of “falling off” your plan…over and over.


How to know if you’re eating enough, what to expect when you start lifting, and why rest days actually matter.


And yes, a very important question for Matt: favourite Super Nintendo game and why.


If you’ve ever wished you could sit us down and just fire questions at us, this episode is exactly that. 🎧


Been listening for a while and want the full picture?

We made a comprehensive training that walks through the four biggest reasons people stay stuck in the weight loss cycle and what to do instead to make sure you are moving in the right direction consistently.
