In this episode of Queen of Pep Talks, Jessica Battle explains why a calorie deficit alone is not enough to create sustainable weight loss for women with a history of binge eating or emotional eating.

While calorie restriction can lead to short-term weight loss, Jessica breaks down why those results often don’t last when the relationship with food is left unaddressed. She explores how restriction, emotional triggers, and all-or-nothing thinking fuel cycles of bingeing, quitting, and starting over — even when women are doing “everything right” on paper.

This episode reframes weight loss as more than just calories and highlights the mindset shifts and emotional skills required to make weight loss sustainable without self-sabotage.

This conversation is for women who want to lose weight and heal their relationship with food — without sacrificing their mental health in the process.
