I know you're smart Reader You must be if you're subscribed to my email list... 😜 And I know you already know that all you need for weight loss is a calorie deficit It sounds so simple, and it is But almost everyone knows that now, and people still struggle It's not about knowing WHAT to do, it's about knowing HOW to do it You've probably heard that you need 'habits' for weight loss That's true But right now I can't tell exactly WHAT habits you need Because it's different for everyone Let me explain Let's say you're a busy remote worker with 2 kids, you might need these 3 habits; HABIT 1: Prep your lunches and dinners in advance so you know exactly what you're eating for the week, and how many calories you're going to be taking in 🥙 HABIT 2: Have a simple, quick, cheap breakfast ready to go each morning (e.g. a large yoghurt) 🧉 HABIT 3: Have the fridge stocked full of low-calorie ready meals in case of emergencies Now let's say you live in a cold country and you commute to work every day in the car or on the train HABIT 1: Set your alarm 20 minutes early each morning so you can get a few thousand steps in before work HABIT 2: Have your warm clothes (thick socks, big coat) laid out on the bedroom floor ready to slip into as soon as you get out of bed HABIT 3: Get a mini treadmill for home, or use a treadmill in your gym so you can do the rest of your steps in indoors OR, let's say you're someone who loves to snack on the sofa at night, which puts you over your calories HABIT 1: Make your dinner MORE filling by including MORE protein fibre to limit snacking HABIT 2: Stock your cupboard full of lower-calorie snacks like popcorn HABIT 3: Set a strict bedtime to limit snacking (this will also help you get more sleep which will help with hunger) These are just a few examples You might be someone who runs half marathons but still can't lose weight 🏃♀️ You might be someone who emotionally eats 😒 🍫 You might be someone that can't get their protein in 🍗 The point is, that everyone needs habits But the habits that work will depend on the individual I'm not going to tell someone who loves takeaways to stop getting them 🍕 I'm not going to tell someone who is super busy that they need to do 15,000 steps a day Coaching should ALWAYS be individualised Reply if you want to get started in April Joe Review Me: https://g.page/r/Cff1IczzxIbBEBM/review Website: 9-to-5-nutrition.com Email: joe.johnson@9-to-5-nutrition.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joe_johnson_9_to_5/ |
