Let’s be real—fall is COMING.
And with it?
Sweaters, football games, school chaos, PSLs, and the urge to crawl under a blanket instead of hitting your workout.
But listen up, Stacy: cozy season doesn’t have to be the season where you “let yourself go” and promise to get back on track after the holidays.
Here are 5 simple weight loss tips to carry you through fall feeling confident, strong, and like that girl—the one who actually follows through.
1️⃣ Make walking your baseline.
We’re not going to pretend 45-minute workouts are always realistic when life is packed with school drop-offs, sports, and work deadlines.
But walking? That’s doable.
🧣 Park further.
🍂 Walk during calls.
🎧 Listen to a podcast while doing loops in your neighborhood.
Fall is the perfect time to build this habit—cooler weather, crunchy leaves, and all.
2️⃣ Swap comfort food for higher protein versions.
This is where most women go wrong: they lean into “cozy” but forget to prioritize fuel.
Don’t skip the soup—just make it smarter.
💡 Think: chicken chili, turkey meatballs with mashed cauliflower, protein oats with pumpkin spice.
Comfort + consistency = results.
3️⃣ Have a plan for Halloween candy (and everything else that follows).
It’s not the candy bar that throws you off—it’s the all-or-nothing mindset that says, “Welp, I blew it. Might as well wait until January.”
Make a plan for the treats. Enjoy some. Move on.
🎃 You’re in charge, not the Reese’s pumpkins.
4️⃣ Keep drinking your water (even when it’s cold).
Fall trick: we think we’re hungry, but we’re often dehydrated.
Set reminders. Use insulated bottles. Add electrolytes. Make it a non-negotiable like brushing your teeth.
Your digestion, skin, and energy will thank you.
5️⃣ Get serious about sleep + stress.
Fall often means schedules get crazy again—and when sleep goes out the window, so does your ability to make good choices.
Prioritize winding down early.
Cut the late-night scrolling.
Make space to breathe—even if that’s five minutes in your car with the seat warmers on and no one talking to you. 😅
You don’t need to wait for New Year’s.
You don’t need to swear off bread and wine.
You just need a plan—and someone to show you how to make this next season your strongest yet.
