Weight Loss Doesn't Have to Suck

Ep #87: Overindulged? Here’s How to Get Back on Track

Kimberly Severson Season 1 Episode 87

Did the holiday weekend get a little indulgent? If so, this episode is for you. I’m diving into how to rebound after a busy, food-filled weekend like Thanksgiving—without spiraling into guilt or self-sabotage. Overeating during the holidays doesn’t mean you’ve ruined everything, but many of my new clients believe exactly that. They catastrophize, beat themselves up, and let one overeating episode turn into more. In this episode, I’m here to remind you: loosening the reins occasionally is normal—and it won’t derail your weight loss if you handle it with the right mindset.

I’ll show you how to break free from that all-or-nothing thinking and get right back on track using the hunger scale: eat when you’re hungry, stop when you’re satisfied. No need for extreme measures or punishment. I’ll also talk about layering in gentle nutrition and self-care if you’re ready—but spoiler: it’s not required. Flexibility, not perfection, is what leads to long-term success. So if you’ve been feeling stuck after a weekend of indulgence, this episode will give you the tools—and the mindset shift—you need to keep moving forward.
