Episode 88: Breaking the Plateau: How Bri Finally Lost 25 lbs After Years of Being Stuck
Friday, 30 January, 2026
In this lighthearted episode, I’m joined by my client Bri to share how shifting her mindset finally got her unstuck after years of not seeing results. When Bri reached out in summer 2025, she was working a demanding job as a lawyer, training with a personal trainer three times per week for nearly two years, and feeling beyond frustrated. She was getting stronger in the gym, but her body composition wasn’t changing, and she felt stuck despite being in a calorie deficit most days of the week. Over four months, Bri lost just over 20 pounds — even while attending concerts, weddings, enjoying margaritas, sushi, and Italian dinners nearly every weekend. After transitioning into a reverse diet and maintenance phase, she continued to lose weight, bringing her total to 25 pounds lost in six months — without burnout, restriction, or sacrificing her social life. This is a real, honest, and fun conversation where Bri shares: • What finally clicked for her • The biggest factor behind her success • The lesson that stuck with her the most • Her favorite part about working with Pivot • The advice she’d give to anyone working out consistently but not seeing results If you’ve ever felt stuck despite working hard in the gym and trying to “eat clean,” this episode is proof that fat loss doesn’t require suffering — it requires a smarter, more sustainable strategy.
