Picture this You're sitting on the plane waiting to go on holiday You've been waiting for this for months Finally time for some sun and not checking your emails 🌞 The engines start up You taxi along the runway, it's all good, you've done this 100 times before You start to pick up speed, you're pushed back in your chair ✈ You feel the moment you lift off the runway and you start thinking about what Netflix series you're going binge on your iPad But something isn't right The engines are louder than normal... A LOT louder You look out the window and instead of seeing the skyline, you see the runway Your fellow passengers start screaming 😱 Kids are crying Rucksakes, handbags and phones are flying towards your face 👜 You're alreday in the clouds and the entire pane is shaking violently 🛬 As you reach for the sickbag you think "this is it" But I have some good news You've survived this totally fictional scenario It makes you think, why don't planes take off at a much steeper angle if it cuts some time off the flight?! 🤔 Well for the same reason that you shouldn't diet as quickly as possible Yes, it gets from A to B quickly 🏎 But it'll be a shit experience You'll need to agressively restrict your calories You won't be able to go out for dinner or drinks ❌🍷 You'll need to be exercising intensely multiple times per week 🏃♀️ Yes you'll get to your destination quickly... But you'll most likely put all the weight back because you haven't learned how to eat proeprly while living your life 📈 And you'll never want to diet ever again (I wouldn't balme you) Your take off angle was too steep But let's say you do it a different way... You take off normally, gaining altitue and speed steadily You eat a moderate amount of calories You just do some extra walking everday 🚶♂️ You can fit in a holiday here and there, or a friend's wedding, or a work dinner 👰 🥗🍻 Yes ou get to destination more slowly But you're safe. No one is puking 🤮 You're chilled, you're enjoying the journey In fact, you wouldn't mind being on this plane for a while Yes, you'll eventually get to your destination, but you'll do it in a way that's stress free You won't crash land in the sea 🌊 It's slower, but it's better And the same is true of dieting If you try to rush it, you're gonna end up in the middle of the atlantic on a life raft crying and covered in puke I have a couple of weight loss coaching spaces open for March, if you're keen, just reply to this email Slow down.

Summer is just around the corner It sure as hell doesn't seem like it Reader In the UK, it's barely been above 15 degrees C for the last 6 months 🥶 It's enough to make you forget summer even exists 😎 But it does And when it comes, you're going to want to be in shape The problem is, you'll only start thinking about it when the sun finally comes out And by then, it's too late Let's say you have a holiday, wedding or some other event in mid-August when you want to look your best Generally, the...
Money is always an awkward topic But there's no point ignoring it As much as we don't like it, money really does make the world go round 🌎 I get people asking me questions and advice all the time on Instagram, email and in the gym 🗣 I try to answer as many people as I can in as much detail as possible Reader But my clients are always going to get more attention And so they should They are paying for my time, and they are paying me to get them a result 💰 But I know what you're thinking Reader,...
