Just a friendly reminder: WEIGHT LOSS IS NOT A LINEAR PROCESS! 🌟

Here's a glimpse into one client's journey from January until their final session with me last week. This graph illustrates the natural ups and downs of weight loss, underscoring how day-to-day fluctuations are a part of the process and not the cause for concern that most people will experience.

It's important to remember that gradual progress, not perfection, is what matters.

My client has not reached their overall goal weight yet, but they've gained the knowledge and confidence to continue on this journey alone, without the constant support of a nutritionist. That's a huge win!

So, don't get discouraged by the small stuff; focus on the bigger picture. Weight loss takes time.

Feeling inspired? Get ready for the summer NOW!

Want to lose weight and your New Year's resolutions didn't work?

Patrick started working with me in January:

"I decided I wanted to shift some weight I've been carrying for far too long and got in touch with Liam.

He has made this process very easy, with straightforward explanations and setting realistic goals. My experience with Liam could not have gone any better, I'm well on my way towards a much healthier lifestyle and Liam has been a joy to work with..”

How much happier would you be at your dream weight? We're in March already, summer is approaching & now's the time to start!

It's the 1st of December. If you haven't already started, today's as good a day as any! Get stuck in now and you can enjoy Christmas without giving yourself a hard time about it.

You'll want to:
- get some decent sleep (having a caffeine cut-off time will help this)
- keep the step count as high as you can fit in
- get a few resistance training sessions in per week
- stay hydrated
- if your goal is weight loss, increase your protein intake and avoid snacking, the snacks available this time of year are fairly energy dense so it'll undermine your efforts if snacking regularly

Most important for results:
- just be consistent with whatever you can manage to do from now until Christmas

Good luck!

The weekend tends to be a stumbling block for the VAST majority of people when they first start with me. They manage well enough during the week, setting themselves up for weight loss success, only to have their weekend habits undermine all the effort they've put in.

If this sounds familiar, consider these two options:

Can you exert more control over your calorie intake on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays? Set a target or a range for the weekend that prevents you from negating the overall calorie deficit you've established throughout the week.

OR

Put in extra effort during the week, implementing further restrictions to accommodate any weekend indulgences while maintaining a net calorie deficit overall.

It makes WAY more sense to gain control over the weekend rather than subjecting yourself to additional hardship during the weekdays. Excessive restriction increases the likelihood of going off the rails come Friday and, worse still, giving up altogether, as it becomes unsustainable over time.

So, make weight loss easier! Put in the work during the week to allow yourself a bit of leeway over the weekend, but avoid going crazy!

Asking yourself "Is this going to move me towards my goal or slow my progress?" is a good habit to get into.
If it's not moving you towards your goal, is there anything you can do to change this?

So if it's takeaway tonight, can you:
- go for a smaller portion of your usual?
- select a lower calorie option from the menu?
- increase the veg and reduce the starchy carb content?
- skip the starter and have the desert?
- have the starter and skip the desert?
- have a few less alcoholic drinks?

Pick the easiest thing for you.

Then do something similar tomorrow but for your main meals, and the day after and so on. Look for the low hanging fruit here - the easiest things to change. Be consistent, be patient and the weight loss will come.

Carbs are not the enemy!
An interesting study (Sofer et al. 2011) looked at subjects for 6 months on a weight loss diet. 1 group had 70% of daily carb intake at dinner, the other group spread carbohydrate intake throughout the day’s meals and snacks.

The researchers found that those eating the majority of carbohydrate in the evening:
- lost more weight
- lost more body fat
- stayed fuller
- lost more around waist
- improved hormonal profile

Want to lose fat?
Get yourself into a deficit and eat in whatever pattern feels best to you.

Make weight loss easier!

Behind the scenes!

I'm updating some client resources in time for the inevitable January rush, while I get the chance.

Pro tip: if you want to lose weight, DO NOT WAIT UNTIL JANUARY.
Start making small changes today and stick to them.

Make it easier on yourself for a guilt free Christmas and new Year! 😀
