## Resource

Maintenance is supposed to be the finish line. So why does it feel like the starting line? In this episode, Gina Livy and Odette get into the real reasons people back slide and dig into why some people unconsciously gain their weight back to keep others comfortable, what the "bits and bites" slippery slope actually is (and isn't), and why finishing food you don't want is a habit worth breaking. Plus: a frank conversation about splitting meals, reading your hunger cues, and why your weight on the scale is almost never the whole story. This episode aligns with day 59 of our Spring 2026 maintenance program.
