About this listen

Ever had a “good” week… then absolutely undone it by Sunday night?

In this episode of Big Fellas, we’re chatting about what we call the silent saboteurs — the sneaky little habits that quietly wreck your weight loss without you even realising.

Because let’s be honest… most of us don’t struggle because we’re lazy or unmotivated. We struggle because of the stuff we’ve normalised.

We get into:

  • 🍔 The weekend blowout – why five solid days can get wiped out by two “ah go on then” days
  • 🍺 Using alcohol as a reward (and how it’s probably costing you more than you think)
  • 🍽️ Portion sizes – especially if you grew up being told to “clear your plate”
  • 😩 Emotional eating disguised as hunger
  • 💥 The “it moment” – that split second where one bad choice turns into a full-on spiral

This episode is all about awareness. Not guilt. Not shame. Just calling out the habits that might be quietly holding you back.

Because once you spot them, you can sort them.

And remember — one bad meal, one bad day, even one bad weekend doesn’t undo everything. Consistency wins. Always.
