On today's episode, I'm sitting down solo to answer a question from one of our amazing listeners named Sarah on what to actually do when the scale stalls — even when you're hitting all your fat loss habits. I'm breaking down how to know if you're in a real plateau or simply in a phase where fat loss is happening behind the scenes. You'll also hear the most common reasons the scale doesn't move (even when progress is happening), the exact benchmarks I use with clients to assess what's really going on, and why it's so important not to adjust your plan too quickly when the scale doesn't budge.

I am Jason Green-Lowe, the executive director of the Center for AI Policy (CAIP). Our mission is to directly convince Congress to pass strong AI safety legislation. As I explain in some detail in this post, I think our organization has been doing extremely important work, and that we've been doing well at it. Unfortunately, we have been unable to get funding from traditional donors to continue our operations. If we don't get more funding in the next 30 days, we will have to shut down, which will damage our relationships with Congress and make it harder for future advocates to get traction on AI governance. In this post, I explain what we've been doing, why I think it's valuable, and how your donations could help. This is the first post in what I expect will be a 3-part series.

In today's solo episode, I'm answering a powerful question from listener Stephanie about a challenge many women face on their fitness journey: what to do when medication suppresses your appetite and you're not eating enough — especially when you're trying to maintain or build muscle. Whether you're taking ADHD medication, weight loss meds, or anything else that impacts your hunger cues… Navigating nutrition can get tricky. And while eating less might seem like a fast track to fat loss, undereating can actually slow your metabolism and lead to unwanted muscle loss. In this episode, I'm breaking down realistic, doable strategies to help you get enough nutrition even on low-appetite days. You'll learn how to fuel your body in a way that supports your muscle and aesthetic goals, keeps your metabolism up, and works with your medication — not against your progress. If muscle tone, strength, and a healthy metabolism are on your goal list, this is one you don't want to miss.

We lost a sweet family dog very unexpectedly this past week and it got me thinking a lot about life and how perceive our expectations... A lot of tears, frustrations, and other emotions throughout that morning and a lot of my thoughts came back to the expectations or misexpectations we put on life circumstances. Although Stella was older, we always forgot just how old she was because of how young and spry she always SEEMED. And in comparison, the other family dog, Levi—who is 2 years older than her— APPEARED old in every way. We have been expecting his “time” to come for about 2 years now… preparing mentally for it to happen at a moments' notice. For Stella, none of us were expecting she would go first, and none of us were expecting her to go like this. Playful and energetic right until the very end. If anyone had any concerns about it, some of my siblings and I would've made more of an effort to be with her in the last week. One sibling beating herself up over the fact that this dog was originally hers as a puppy, and she ALMOST came home to my parent's house last night, but had a change of plans, and for that reason didn't get to see her one more time or be there when it happened. How often do we have strong emotions come up in day to day life that wouldn't be as strong if our expectations had just been aligned with the reality? If we had expected to lose a dog in her older age today, after living a beautiful life, we probably would feel peaceful instead of distraught. A tangible example for day to day life… how often do you go into the week thinking “I'm going to eat healthy, hit my macros, and go to the gym X times” but then work gets busy, you forget to track, you miss a workout, and then you think “this sucks” and feel upset? What if you spent some time going into the week planning as best you can for what you KNOW is on your plate— or even just being real with yourself if you have a career that can ramp up or down in busyness in a moment's notice— and set really realistic expectations for the week, even if it's not what you WANT the week to look like? Would you feel a lot better if you missed the gym? Probably. And just feeling slightly better can be the difference between you adjusting the plan and continuing to move forward vs. giving up on the plan and “starting over next week.” I even felt this with a vacation recently… where I had labeled it as a “vacation” because we were going to Cancun, Mexico, and I had expectations of coming home feeling refreshed and relaxed because that's what usually happens on beach vacations. But the reality is that this was not a vacation, but a time spent working remotely while also being with friends in Mexico outside of working. This led to resentment and frustration when working, feeling more physically run down because I wasn't resting, and coming home with thoughts like “maybe I just shouldn't have even gone”… yet if I had gone in with the right expectations, I still might've felt tired coming home, but I would've had thoughts like “it's worth it because that was so fun, and how cool that I have a job where I can work remotely in beautiful places?!” At the end of the day, if you're not happy with the reality… it didn't/isn't matching your expectations… then you can either change your expectations or change your reality. But don't sit between the middle indulging in really negative emotions when you are in control of the way you think about your situation. I'm not saying to just NOT feel negative emotions (trust me, I'm feeling them today), but I do think we can also choose to look at the “bright side.” Listen in as we talk through this thought process together and RIP Stella. While I wish I could've hugged you one more time, I'm happy to know that it was quick, that a family member was home, and that you did live such a great life right up to the end.

On today's episode I am sitting down solo to discuss one of the most common questions I get asked both in my DMs and during coaching sessions: “Can eating too much protein actually sabotage my progress and be the reason why I'm not losing weight?” Protein is so important when it comes to fat loss because of it's appetite suppressing benefits and how it helps you target fat loss while keeping your muscle when dieting… but that doesn't always mean more is better. That's why in this episode I'm going to break down situations in which eating more protein is better for your goals alongside also sharing other scenarios in which if you're eating too much – it can actually hold you back from seeing progress, and why. By the end of this episode, you'll understand why setting a specific protein target based on your body's actual needs should be top priority if you want to shed fat and gain tangible tips on how to structure a high protein diet that works with your goals, not against them. 1:1 Coaching with Lauren and Our Team of Dietitians: HERE Join my 30 30 in 30 Challenge HERE To connect with Lauren, click HERE Submit your question for advice from Lauren on the show HERE Take the free Weight Loss Personality Quiz HERE Shop Our Meal Plans HERE Get Support & Personally Work With Us HERE Related Episodes:

On today's episode, I am sitting down solo to answer a question submitted by one of our amazing listeners named Ali on fat's role in fat loss. Fat is a macronutrient that is high in calories, yet in many of the very healthful foods we eat. That's why I loved Ali's question because it can be confusing to know just how much fat you should be eating when trying to lose body fat… especially when you're trying to be in a calorie deficit and cut back on extra calories you don't need. By the end of today's episode you can expect to learn more about fat as compared to the other macronutrient's carbs and proteins, why fat is actually important to eat in your diet even if you want to shed weight and scenarios in which you may want to cut back on your fat intake. Most importantly, I'm also sharing how to balance your favorite fat rich foods that you already eat in your diet alongside your weight loss goals so you can lose weight without feeling deprived. 1:1 Coaching with Lauren and Our Team of Dietitians HERE To connect with Lauren, click HERE Submit your question for advice from Lauren on the show HERE Take the free Weight Loss Personality Quiz HERE Shop Our Meal Plans HERE Get Support & Personally Work With Us HERE

Today's guest is the beloved author, Elif Shafak, whose latest title was a 2024 Summer Reading Guide pick. Elif's works are so particular and set very much in a specific time and place, yet they also feel so inclusive. Elif's stories explore universal themes like home and belonging, exile and displacement. She also leverages her Turkish heritage and accesses storytelling traditions that are sometimes unfamiliar to Western readers. Elif is one of Anne's favorite writers working right now, in large part because she attempts things no other writer would think of. Today, they talk about that as well as the mythologies and metaphors that make her books so engrossing.
