The Set Point Science Podcast explores the science behind how your body and brain regulate weight, for good.

Hosted by Cheri Alberts, this podcast draws from neuroscience, psychology, physiology, and real-world coaching to explain why weight loss stalls, why forcing never works, and how calm, consistent nourishment allows the body to release weight naturally.

No tracking.
No extremes.
No fighting your body.

The Safety Reset: Why Your Body Won’t Release Weight Until It Feels Safe

Épisode 1

mardi 6 janvier 2026 • Durée 18:11

If you’ve tried everything to lose weight and it still won’t budge, this episode offers a radically different explanation, one that isn’t about discipline, willpower, or fixing yourself.

In this first episode of The Set Point Science™ Podcast, I share the moment that changed everything for me: realizing that my body wasn’t resisting weight loss, it was protecting me. Through both personal experience and clear, grounded science, we explore why effort and strictness can actually keep weight stuck, and why safety, not pressure, is the real prerequisite for change.

This episode is for you if:

You feel like weight loss used to work, and now it doesn’t
You can’t stick to strict plans anymore, no matter how motivated you are
You’ve wondered if it’s your metabolism, your age, your meds, or something “wrong” with you
You’re exhausted from starting over every few days

In this episode, you’ll understand:

Why the body won’t release weight when it feels stressed or unsafe
How the HPA axis, cortisol, leptin, and ghrelin respond to pressure
What “safety” actually means in the body, biologically and practically
Why calm isn’t laziness, it’s the condition for regulation and release
How your set point shifts when your body finally feels steady enough to trust

If this perspective feels relieving, I created a free resource called the Gentle Weight Loss Guide. It’s not a plan to follow, just something to read and sit with as you begin seeing your body differently.

Nothing is wrong with you.

Your body is responding.

When Weight Loss Feels “Boring” (The Mastery Phase Explained)

Épisode 8

mardi 24 février 2026 • Durée 20:32

There is a moment in this work where things start to get… a little weird. You step on the scale, it doesn’t show a lower number, it might even be up, and for the first time in your life, you don’t react. Instead of feeling like a victory, it feels like a Power Outage.

▪️▪️ INSIDE THE EPISODE

Most of us have been conditioned to believe that "caring" looks like intensity. We think that if our heart rate isn’t up and our mind isn’t racing, we must be "giving up". In this episode, Cheri Alberts explains why this unsettling silence isn't a failure: it’s the Mastery Phase of weight regulation.

▪️▪️ KEY SCIENCE & REFRAMES

✳️ THE POWER OUTAGE Why early regulation feels "boring" and triggers the fear that you’re losing your edge.

✳️ ALLOSTASIS Understanding your brain as a "Weather Forecaster" that predicts turbulence and braces the body for a storm.

✳️ THE MASTER CRAFTSMAN Moving from the "Beginner Phase" (sweat and wasted movement) to the quiet efficiency of a regulated system.

✳️ WEIGHT DEFENSE Why neutrality is the first biological sign that your body’s protective defense is starting to soften.

Why I Quit the Nutritarian Diet | What Changed, and What I Do Instead

Épisode 7

mardi 17 février 2026 • Durée 27:09

In this deeply personal episode, Cheri Alberts shares the 14-year evolution of her health journey, from being a self-described “foodie,” to a dedicated Nutritarian, and finally to the founder of Set Point Science™.

If you’ve ever felt like a failure because you couldn’t sustain a “perfect” way of eating, this episode is an invitation to stop blaming yourself and start understanding your biology.

Cheri pulls back the curtain on why eating “perfectly” didn’t resolve her bingeing, and how navigating a twin pregnancy, stage-two breast cancer, and chemical menopause forced a fundamental shift, away from rigid rules and toward biological safety.

Passive Weight Loss: What Happens When You Stop Telling Your Body What to Do

Épisode 6

mardi 10 février 2026 • Durée 18:48

What if weight loss doesn’t happen because you try harder, but because your body finally feels safe enough to let go?

In this episode of The Set Point Science™ Podcast, we explore what I call passive weight loss—not as a mindset trick or a strategy, but as a biological response that emerges when pressure drops and regulation returns.

This episode is for you if: ‍• You’re exhausted by constantly managing, tracking, or “staying on top of” your body • Weight loss used to work when you tried harder, but now effort just creates more tension • You feel like your body is resistant, stubborn, or no longer cooperating • You’re curious whether calm, not control, might actually be the missing piece

After listening, you’ll understand: • Why your body isn’t attached to a higher weight, but to staying safe • How constant monitoring and mental supervision register as demand in the nervous system • Why cortisol, appetite, and fat storage respond to pressure, not willpower • What actually shifts inside the body when the system relaxes • Why passive weight loss often feels boring, neutral, and surprisingly relieving

If this episode brings a sense of exhale, that matters.

Inside Set Point Restore™, we practice lowering the chronic demand the body has been carrying so regulation can return naturally. The membership isn’t open yet, but you can learn more and join the waitlist here: 👉 https://www.setpointscience.com/restore

And if you want a gentle place to start reframing weight loss—something to read, not a plan to follow—you can download the Gentle Weight Loss Guide here: 👉 https://www.setpointscience.com/youtubeguide

Nothing here is about giving up.

It’s about getting out of the way long enough for your body to do what it was already designed to do.

Until next time… see if you can step out of the manager’s office for a few minutes today, and just notice what your body does with the quiet.

Why Skipping Meals Feels Productive — and Why It Backfires

Épisode 5

mardi 3 février 2026 • Durée 15:25

Skipping meals is often framed as discipline, efficiency, or “being good.”

But in the body, skipped meals register very differently.

In this episode of The Set Point Science™ Podcast, we explore why skipping meals can quietly signal stress, slow regulation, and keep weight stuck, even when it feels logical or productive.

This episode is for you if: • You skip meals without thinking about it, especially when busy or focused • You’ve been told hunger is something to push through • Weight loss feels harder than it used to, even though you’re “doing less” • You suspect your body might be reacting to patterns that once worked but no longer do

In this episode, you’ll understand: • Why skipping meals tells the body it’s not safe to relax or release • How meal timing affects cortisol, appetite signals, and metabolic trust • Why “efficient” eating can feel good mentally but destabilizing physically • How consistency, not restriction, restores regulation over time • What it actually looks like to feed the body in a way that supports calm weight loss

If this conversation brings relief or understanding, there are two gentle ways to go deeper:

--> Set Point Restore™ is a membership focused on rebuilding safety, rhythm, and regulation over time. It’s not about rules or tracking, just learning how to work with your body again. The waitlist is open if you want to explore when the timing feels right. https://www.setpointscience.com/restore --> I also created a free resource called the Gentle Weight Loss Guide. It’s not a plan to follow, just something to read and sit with as you begin seeing your eating patterns through a different lens. https://www.setpointscience.com/podcastguide

Nothing is wrong with you.

Your body has been responding to the signals it’s been given, and those signals can change.

The Regulation Loop™: How Thoughts, Physiology, and Eating Reinforce Each Other

Épisode 4

mardi 27 janvier 2026 • Durée 14:43

Why do the same eating patterns keep repeating, even when you know better?

In Episode 4 of The Set Point Science™ Podcast, I introduce The Regulation Loop™, a simple but powerful framework that explains how thoughts, physiology, and eating behaviors continuously reinforce each other.

When one part of the loop is stressed, the entire system responds. That’s why willpower alone doesn’t work, and why trying to “fix” eating without addressing state often backfires.

In this episode, you’ll learn: • How thoughts influence physiology before food even enters the picture • Why stress and nervous system state shape appetite and cravings • How eating behaviors reinforce beliefs and bodily responses • Where to intervene if you want the loop to actually change

This episode lays the groundwork for understanding regulation, not as a single choice, but as a self-reinforcing system that can be gently shifted.

Your Body Isn’t Broken, It’s Responding

Épisode 3

mardi 20 janvier 2026 • Durée 15:31

In this episode of Set Point Science™, Cheri Alberts explores why weight loss often becomes harder after years of dieting, stress, or inconsistency—and why that doesn’t mean something is wrong with you.

Rather than treating hunger, cravings, fatigue, or plateaus as problems to fix, this episode reframes them as intelligent signals from a cautious, protective system.

In this episode, we explore:

Why the first few pounds that stay off feel different
How appetite lowering signals regulation—not willpower
Why the body holds weight during stress or unpredictability
What “defended weight” actually means
How constant self-supervision can keep the system braced
Why separating sensation from story supports regulation

Key takeaway:

Your body isn’t broken—and your mind isn’t the enemy.

Both are responding based on experience and pattern.

When the body feels understood instead of corrected, flexibility often returns on its own.

Why Weight Loss Feels Harder the Smarter You Are

Épisode 2

mardi 13 janvier 2026 • Durée 18:12

If weight loss has felt harder the more thoughtful, educated, or self-aware you’ve become, this episode explains why.

In Episode 2 of The Set Point Science™ Podcast, I explore how effort, analysis, and constant self-monitoring can quietly interfere with the body’s ability to regulate weight.

This episode is not about doing less out of apathy.

It’s about understanding state, safety, and why the body doesn’t respond to being managed.

You’ll learn:

Why thinking harder often increases friction instead of results
How over-monitoring keeps the nervous system alert, not regulated
The difference between effort and biological readiness
What actually helps the body shift into release mode

This episode is especially for you if:

You’ve tried every plan and understand the science, but still feel stuck
You notice that more effort seems to create more resistance
You’re tired of managing your body and want a calmer, more effective approach

Nothing is wrong with you.

Your system may just be working very hard to stay safe.

Cheri Update: The 50-Pound Elephant in the Room

Épisode 12

mardi 24 mars 2026 • Durée 28:36

It’s time to stop the annoying polished act and get real. In this special episode, I am dropping the AI-organized scripts to speak with my raw, unedited voice about the "elephant in the room": my own 50-pound weight gain following three kids and a battle with cancer.

I’m sharing exactly where I am, how "chemical menopause" has changed my brain and body, and how I am using Passive Weight Loss to restore my system without the white-knuckling like I always used to do.

This episode is for you if:

-- You are a woman over 40 navigating hormonal shifts, medication side effects, or "menopause brain fog". -- You’ve ever felt like a "failure" because the weight loss tools that worked in your 20s no longer function in your current biology. -- You are tired of the polished diet industry narrative and want to hear from a coach who is actually in the "mud" of mid-life with you.

What you’ll understand after listening:

-- The Reality of "Reactance": Why telling yourself you "can't" have something only makes your brain want it more, and the "Reality Planning" antidote that ended my 20-year binge eating cycle. -- Credit for the "freaking insane stuff": Why weight gain doesn't erase your massive wins, like ending binge eating, stabilizing blood sugar, or reversing osteopenia. -- Your Rhythmprint™: How to find a sustainable, enjoyable biological rhythm that signals "safety" to your nervous system so your body can finally let go of weight. -- The Path Forward: My personal protocol for satiety (100g of protein and high fiber) and my journey toward a Master’s in Psychology at Harvard to bring more scientific legitimacy to this work.
