New York Times best-selling author Dr. Susan Peirce Thompson, brain and cognitive scientist and founder of Bright Line Eating, teaches you the three identity shifts that will finally keep the weight off for good.

Conventional weight-loss programs, GLP-1s, gastric bypass, and fad diets aren't the magic bullets everyone hoped for. More often than not, people lose some weight, return to old eating patterns, and then promptly regain what they lost. With 85% of people getting off their GLP-1 medications within two years, a more lasting mindset is needed. Why is losing weight—and keeping it off—so difficult?

Dr. Susan Peirce Thompson has the answer: three science-backed identity shifts that will promote lasting change at the deepest level and rewire your relationship with food, dieting, and yourself.

In this short, gently guided meditation, Susan invites listeners to feel into the three identity shifts that make long-term Maintenance possible: being Devoted to a supportive food plan, Resourced with tools beyond food, and Liberated from the ongoing food and weight struggle. Through calming breathwork and vivid reflection, participants experience what it’s like when food decisions are settled, stress is met with care instead of eating, and mental space opens up for life beyond weight management. This meditation offers an embodied sense of calm, confidence, and freedom—an identity listeners can return to again and again.

Video: The Origin of Devoted, Resourced, and Liberated

In this behind-the-scenes video, Susan shares the long, human evolution of the Devoted–Resourced–Liberated framework and how it emerged from decades of experience, teaching, and listening to the Bright Line Eating community. She explains why sustained Maintenance requires identity shifts—not just strategies—and traces how these three concepts were shaped, named, and refined over time. Along the way, Susan explores why devotion depends on having a strong enough plan, how becoming resourced unfolds gradually, and why true liberation from the food and weight struggle is often the most challenging—and most transformative—shift of all.

This printable, bookplate-sized love note from Susan is a warm, personal welcome to the path of Maintenance. Written in her signature voice, it reframes food as a teacher rather than an enemy and reminds readers that liberation from the food and weight struggle begins now—not someday in the future. Readers can print and paste it inside their copy of Maintain as a lasting reminder that Maintenance is a rich, lifelong journey, and that becoming Devoted, Resourced, and Liberated is an act of courage, self-trust, and deep care.

Susan has partnered with WorthyBooks, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, to share her extraordinary guide to break the dieting cycle, Maintain, to nonprofits, libraries, and underserved communities across the country.
