Lose Weight, Keep Wine, and Actually Enjoy Your Life

If you've ever finished a diet program thinking "okay, I know what to do now" — and then slowly watched it all come back — this episode is for you. Nikki sits down with Stephanie, a Keep It Off Academy grad who spent years doing all the "right" things and still couldn't make it stick. Weight Watchers, a local program that put her on 1,200 calories and told her to skip the gym, Noom... all the things.  What changed wasn't finding a stricter plan. It was finally understanding why her body worked the way it did — and building a strategy she didn't need to white-knuckle on the weekends.
