Summary
The number on your scale is one of the least useful pieces of health data you have. And chasing it is likely the reason you feel like you're failing.

Courtney explains the critical difference between fat loss and weight loss, why muscle preservation is non-negotiable after 40, and what measurements actually reflect the progress you're working for.
