Episode 2955:

Julia Steier emphasizes that lasting weight loss success comes from setting realistic, behavior-based goals rather than obsessing over the number on the scale. Her approach encourages small, achievable changes that lead to steady progress and long-term lifestyle transformation.

Quotes to ponder:

"Setting small, specific, and realistic goals can help you stay on track and feel a sense of accomplishment."

"Instead of focusing only on the final number on the scale, aim for behavior-based goals."
