Everyone wants to know how to lose fat, but knowing when your body is actually ready for a fat loss phase is a completely different skill.

In Part 2 of this maintenance miniseries, Sue and Alex break down how to recognize when maintenance might be the missing piece in your fitness journey and why it isn't just a phase reserved for after you've reached your goal.

They discuss the foundational habits and health markers that influence your readiness to diet, how to estimate your maintenance calories, and why finding the right intake takes more than relying on a calculator or a number from a previous diet.

They challenge the idea that progress always means doing more or eating less, explaining how taking the time to nourish your body and build a stronger foundation can set you up for better results that actually last.
