138. Stop Playing Fat Loss On Hard Mode

You're not struggling with fat loss because it's too hard. You're struggling because you're making it harder than it needs to be. In nearly a decade of coaching, I've learned that most women don't need more information. They need fewer distractions, fewer excuses, and fewer things competing for their attention. The reality is that fat loss is often far simpler than we've been led to believe, but we make it complicated by overthinking, chasing shiny objects, and avoiding the discomfort that comes with doing the basics consistently. In this episode, I'm sharing 8 ways you're unintentionally playing fat loss on hard mode and what to do instead. 🎧Listen now and send me a message on Instagram @marissaroyfitness with the biggest takeaway that hit home for you.

137 - If Influencers Were Honest

What if I told you that some of the most popular fitness advice on Instagram is keeping you stuck? If you've ever felt frustrated because you're following the advice of your favorite fitness influencers but still aren't seeing results, this episode is for you. After coaching over 1,300 women and spending nearly a decade in the health and fitness industry, I've learned that many of the messages dominating social media are oversimplified, misleading, or completely lacking context. The problem isn't that these concepts are always wrong - it's that they're often presented without the nuance you actually need to make progress. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on some of the most common fitness myths and breaking down what influencers would say if they were being completely honest. 🎧 Listen to the full episode and send me a message on Instagram: Which fitness myth have you fallen for, or which one surprised you the most?

136. Why Fitness Always Tends To Feel Like ‘Another Thing’ On Your Plate

You tell yourself you’ll finally prioritize your health “when life calms down.” Or you go all in, stay consistent for a while, and eventually burn out because every habit feels like another obligation to manage. And the frustrating part? You KNOW what to do. But somehow it still feels exhausting to maintain. In this episode, I’m breaking down: * Why fitness starts to feel mentally draining instead of supportive * The difference between performative wellness vs. integrated habits * Why most people struggle to sustain results long-term * How identity and personal standards shape your consistency * The hidden reason high achievers burn out in health & fitness Because real transformation doesn’t happen when you force yourself to “be disciplined” forever. It happens when your habits stop being something you perform for an outcome… and start becoming part of who you are.

135. Heal Your Relationship With Tracking Macros

If tracking your food makes you feel obsessive, anxious, ashamed, or like you’re constantly “failing,” this episode is going to completely shift the way you look at data, dieting, and your body. Because the truth is: Most women aren’t struggling with tracking itself. They’re struggling with perfectionism, avoidance, and the belief that numbers determine their worth. In this episode, I’m breaking down: * Why tracking macros became so emotionally charged for so many women * The avoidance + perfectionism cycles keeping you stuck * The difference between accuracy vs. reliability * Why data is neutral and how to actually use it as feedback instead of punishment * The exact mindset shifts we use with our coaching clients to rebuild a healthier relationship with food tracking I’m hosting a FREE masterclass on this tomorrow, Tuesday May 19th at 5pm.

134. Are You Actually At A Plateau? & How To Break It

You’re probably not in a fat loss plateau… you’re just missing the right data, strategy, and consistency. Most people panic the second the scale stops moving. They slash calories, add more cardio, and convince themselves their metabolism is “broken” - when in reality, they’ve never actually learned how fat loss works. In this episode, I’m breaking down: * What a REAL fat loss plateau actually is, (& why most people are not truly plateaued) * The biggest mistakes people make when progress slows * How metabolism adaptation works * The exact “levers” to pull BEFORE cutting calories * Why patience, data, and consistency matter more than extremes * And how I’m personally navigating my own plateau right now during my current fat loss phase If you’re tired of feeling stuck, frustrated, or like your body is “fighting against you,” this episode will change the way you approach fat loss forever.
