In today's raw and totally unfiltered season finale, I'm catching myself before I spiral… and sharing exactly how I'm resetting for 2026. This episode is honest, messy, cozy, and exactly what so many of us need right now: A reminder that regain, burnout, stress, skipped meals, chaos, inconsistency — none of it means you failed. It means you're human. And there is a way out of the spiral. We talk about: • Why slowing down is the real weight-loss strategy no one talks about • How perfectionism shows up in tiny, sneaky ways that sabotage progress • Feeling up on the scale and NOT panicking (and exactly what to do next) • Old patterns returning postpartum (and what they really mean) • Honoring your energy, routines, and mental load before changing your food • Why accountability increases success from 25% → 95% (seriously) • What I'm shifting in my programs in 2026 to support you better • The real behind-the-scenes of motherhood, WLS, GLP-1s, and running a business 📚 Accountability Research I Mentioned: * Dominican University Goal Study PDF: https://www.dominican.edu/sites/default/files/2020-03/Gail%20Matthews%20Goal%20Study.pdf [https://www.dominican.edu/sites/default/files/2020-03/Gail%20Matthews%20Goal%20Study.pdf] * AFCPE / ATD Summary: https://www.afcpe.org/news-and-publications/the-standard/2018-3/the-power-of-accountability/ [https://www.afcpe.org/news-and-publications/the-standard/2018-3/the-power-of-accountability/] * Boss as a Service Stats: https://bossasaservice.com/blog/accountability-partner-statistics/ [https://bossasaservice.com/blog/accountability-partner-statistics/] 💗 Thank You for Listening!

The Chaos of Trying to Do It All — And Wanting to Do Less in 2026

I'm burnt out… and I'm finally saying it out loud. If you've been trying to "do it all" and you feel like you're running on fumes, this episode is going to hit home. This week, I'm opening up about what 2025 really looked like behind the scenes — the pressure, the constant to-do lists, juggling motherhood and business, feeling stretched thin, and realizing that something has to shift moving into 2026. This isn't a New Year's resolution episode. It's an honest conversation about burnout, slowing down, letting go of unrealistic expectations, and finally choosing a year that feels different — calmer, more intentional, more spacious. Inside this video, we dive into: ✨ The emotional load of motherhood + business ✨ How burnout sneaks up even when you "love your life" ✨ Why constant hustle stops working ✨ The truth about tying your worth to numbers (weight, likes, revenue) ✨ How I'm redefining success for 2026 ✨ And why "doing less" might be the real glow-up Whether you're a bariatric patient, a mom, an entrepreneur, or someone who just feels fried from life… you're not alone.

"Did You Mean to Say That Out Loud?" Navigating Holiday Chaos with Better Boundaries

The holidays bring enough chaos, the last thing you need is unsolicited comments about your body, food choices, or weight loss surgery. In this episode of Proffee & Chaos, Jamie gets real about one of the most important skills you'll ever build on your post-op journey: boundaries. Whether you're navigating relatives who push food, friends who love to comment on your appearance, or people with very loud opinions about GLP-1s, Jamie walks you through exactly how to respond with clarity, confidence, and zero guilt. You'll learn how to set boundaries with others, and the often forgotten piece, how to set boundaries with yourself. She shares real scripts, mindset shifts, and tough-love reminders to help you honor your needs without letting people-pleasing run the show. If you're heading into your first holiday season after WLS or you're years post-op and still struggle with comments around food or your body, this conversation will help you breathe easier and feel more prepared. You deserve to enjoy this season without anxiety, shame spirals, or second-guessing yourself. Grab your proffee, get cozy, and let's build boundaries that actually protect your peace.

Chaos, Calories & Calling Out The BS with Rob DiMedio

Struggling with regain? Feeling like you're doing "everything right" but the scale won't budge? You are not alone — and today's episode will hit home. In this brutally honest conversation, Jamie sits down with Rob DiMedio — bariatric patient, teacher, personal trainer, and creator of Busy Bariatrics and @myweightishistory — to unpack the real reasons post-op patients struggle with food noise, tracking obsession, regain, and conflicting advice. Together, they dig into the messy middle of bariatric life: macros vs. intentional eating, why calorie trackers can backfire, how chronic under-eating fuels bingeing, and the emotional weight of trying to "get it right" years after surgery. If you've ever felt ashamed, stuck, overwhelmed, or terrified of slipping back into old habits — this episode might be the permission slip you've needed. Watch until the end for insight on: ✨ Why tracking works for some people but destroys progress for others ✨ The truth about food noise (and how to quiet it) ✨ How cultural foods absolutely fit post-op ✨ Why sandwiches, potatoes & pasta aren't the enemy ✨ What regain actually means — and what it doesn't ✨ How to build meals that keep you full AND support weight loss ✨ GLP-1s, mindset, metabolism, and real-life bariatric living 🔗 LINKS FROM TODAY'S EPISODE Rob's Website → https://www.busybariatrics.com [https://www.busybariatrics.com]Rob's Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/myweightishistory/ [https://www.instagram.com/myweightishistory/] BARIATRIC BREAKTHROUGH PROGRAM - ENROLLING NOW!

What's for Dinner? Charcuterie, Chaos, and Girl Dinner

If you've ever stood in your kitchen at 6pm thinking, What the hell am I going to cook for dinner? Welcome to the club, babe. Today's episode pulls the curtain back on what dinner actually looks like in real life… especially when you're post-op, juggling kids, working, and trying to not fall face-first into nighttime snacking. Jamie keeps it brutally honest (as always) about why dinner feels so overwhelming, why "bariatric-friendly" has gotten way too extreme, and how to build a balanced plate without feeling like you're meal-prepping for the military. From crockpot staples and girl-dinner plates to the "rotisserie chicken saves lives" movement, this episode gives you the permission you didn't even know you needed: food doesn't have to be fancy to count. Inside, you'll learn: * Why perfectionism around dinner leads straight to grazing * How to build a balanced plate using Jamie's Bariatric Breakthrough® Meal Plate Method * Easy dinner ideas that don't require recipes, meal prep, or culinary skills * The truth about pasta, bread, carbs, and why mixed meals still count * Why under-eating at dinner fuels bingeing later * How to stop making separate meals for your family and yourself This episode is for anyone 1–10+ years post-op who's exhausted, hungry, and tired of feeling like dinner determines their success.
