Mini Mikkipedia - The Most Dangerous Phase of Fat Loss


Most people don’t quit fat loss at the start, when motivation is high, or at the end, when results are obvious. They quit in the middle. In this Mini Micropedia episode, Mikki unpacks why the middle phase of fat loss feels so uncomfortable, confusing, and tempting to abandon—and why it’s actually where success is decided. Drawing on Seth Godin’s concept of The Dip, Mikki explains how slowing scale changes, rising hunger, reduced novelty, and fuzzy feedback loops can make perfectly normal progress feel like failure. She breaks down the physiological and psychological shifts that happen during sustained fat loss, the three common lies people tell themselves in the middle, and why chasing a “new plan” is usually the worst move. This episode reframes the middle not as a problem to fix, but as the work itself—and shows how staying the course builds habits, self-trust, and sustainable results.

  • What “The Dip” is and why it shows up in fat loss
  • Why slow progress doesn’t mean stalled progress
