Mini Mikkipedia - Why Maintenance Feels Harder Than Fat Loss

Mikki dives deep into the often-overlooked challenge of weight maintenance. While fat loss gets all the glory, maintenance can feel like a grind—no more scale victories, compliments, or clear finish lines. Drawing on Seth Godin’s concept of The Dip, Mikki explains why maintaining your results is not the easy street people expect but rather the phase where the real work begins. She unpacks six key reasons maintenance feels harder than dieting and offers practical strategies to shift your mindset, build resilience, and find satisfaction in staying the course. This is a must-listen for anyone who’s reached their goal and now wonders, “What’s next?”Episode Highlights:Why the absence of visible results makes maintenance feel harder than fat lossSeth Godin’s The Dip and how it relates to body composition goalsSix psychological and physiological challenges during the maintenance phaseHow to set new goals and metrics to stay motivatedPractical tips to maintain progress without burnout or rigidity Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwillidenSave 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKI at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comCurranz supplement: MIKKI saves you 25% at www.curranz.co.nz or www.curranz.co.uk off your first order

I sit down with scientists, doctors, professors, practitioners and people who have a wealth of experience and have a conversation that takes a deep dive into their area of expertise. I love translating science into a language that people understand, so while some of the conversations will be pretty in-depth, you will come away with some practical tips that can be instigated into your everyday life.
