Let’s make this simple. Every goal you have — fat loss, muscle gain, performance, or maintenance — comes back to calorie balance. Not a special diet, not cutting carbs, not magic supplements.
Just energy in vs energy out.
Your body burns a certain amount of energy every day through: • Metabolism
• Daily movement (including your job)
• Training
If you eat less than you burn → you lose fat.
If you eat more than you burn → you build muscle.
If you match what you burn → you maintain.
But here’s where people get confused
There are factors that change how many calories your body uses: • Metabolic adaptation from long dieting
• Hormones influencing appetite & energy levels
• Digestive differences affecting how many calories we absorb
• Medical conditions like PCOS or hypothyroidism that shift metabolic demand
These don’t break calorie balance.
They just change the numbers.
That’s why two people eating “the same” may see different results — not because energy balance is wrong, but because their energy OUT is different.
Understanding your energy needs, training load, and hunger patterns is what makes nutrition work for you — not against you.
This is what personalised nutrition coaching does:
It finds your numbers.
Your fuel needs.
Your path to progress.
Eat for your goal. Fuel your training. Track progress, not perfection.
