Welcome to your Midweek Motivation!In this episode, Gina gets fired up about a conversation that's long overdue in the weight loss world—how to actually maintain it. Coming in live from her trip to Obesity Week in Atlanta, while Odette holds down the fort, they reflect on the deeper purpose behind the tweaks in The Program, especially during the Feeding the Metabolism week. Gina shares her insights from Obesity Week, where tools for weight loss are everywhere, but conversations around sustaining results are still missing. Not here, though. This episode is all about reinforcing that what the Livy Community is doing is the conversation. It's the mindset, the habits, and the real-life follow-through that make weight loss sustainable, and that's what sets this method apart.You can find the full video hosted at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ginalivymaintenanceandmindfulnessTo learn more about The Livy Method and our Maintenance & Mindfulness group, visit livymethod.com.
