How to Actually Follow Through on Your Fat Loss Goals in 2026



What I'd Do Differently If I Was Starting My Fitness Journey






If every year feels like groundhogs day and you find yourself setting the same fat loss goal year after year...you're not alone!


But this is a big sign that in order to actually reach your goals this year...something needs to change. It's not that you just need to grit down and find more discipline. You need a better approach to fat loss.


In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to make 2026 the year you finally follow through on your fat loss goals, instead of setting the same goal for the 3rd, 4th, or 5th year in a row and wondering why nothing sticks.


If you’re ready for sustainable fat loss, realistic weight loss strategies, and a mindset shift that actually leads to action — you’re in the right place.


Why You Keep Setting the Same Weight Loss Goal Every Year

Let’s have an honesty moment.

If you’re setting the same weight loss or fat loss goal again this year, it’s not because:

  • You don’t want it badly enough

  • You don’t care

  • You’re lazy

You clearly care — that’s why you’re still here.


What usually happens is this:

  • Life gets busy

  • Routines fall apart

  • Stress increases

  • You never fully set up habits that work in real life


So instead of creating sustainable fat loss habits, you end up relying on motivation… until it fades.


And then next January? You’re right back here.


How to Follow Through On Your Fat Loss Goals in 2026


Sustainable fat loss comes from specific daily and weekly actions, not vague outcome goals.

Instead of only focusing on what you want, start asking:

  • What do I need to do consistently to get there?


Examples:

  • Cooking more meals at home

  • Hitting calorie targets a certain number of days per week

  • Reducing high-calorie coffee drinks

  • Strength training consistently

  • Managing stress and sleep


Choose 1–3 realistic actions that actually move the needle.

That’s how fat loss goals turn into real progress.


Identify the Real Gap (This Is the Part Most People Skip)

If you “know what to do but can’t get yourself to do it,” the issue isn’t knowledge.

It’s the gap between intention and action.

Ask yourself:

  • Do I fall into all-or-nothing thinking?

  • Do I struggle with hunger cues or finishing my plate?

  • Am I overly focused on calories while ignoring stress, sleep, or mindset?

  • Do I lack accountability?

This is where fat loss mindset shifts happen — and where coaching can be a game-changer.


In this weeks podcast episode I'm diving into what to do after you've identified this gap and a few other pieces you're missing to make 2026 the year you FINALLY follow through on your fat loss goals.
