“80% of weight loss has nothing to do with exercise,” says Dr. Betsy Grunch one of the world’s top neurosurgeons and spine surgeons.
This is especially important if you’ve been stuck in the loop of:
“I need to work out… but I’m in pain.”
Dr. Grunch, known to millions online as @ladyspinedoc , explains why pain doesn’t mean you’re failing - and why weight loss doesn’t start in the gym.
It starts with awareness.
Most weight gain doesn’t come from one big decision.
It comes from mindless habits we don’t even notice - snacking, grabbing, eating on autopilot.
If you want 2026 to be the year you feel stronger, leaner, and back in control of your health - without punishing workouts or pushing through pain - this episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast is for you.
