Fat loss is 80% mindset 20% diet and exercise.
Fat loss is more about your mindset than your diet!
Human behaviour is pretty complex and how you train and educate your mind could be the best thing you do for long term maintainable results.
Everyone one goes on about diet and exercise but there’s not enough people talking around their mindset.
Your mind is the biggest thing you need to master to get long term wins.
✅How weight loss actually works and that how you look has no coloration to the scales.
Do you think you would look better losing 10lb of weight or 14lb?
Nobody knows unfortunately. 🤷🏻♂️
You would not know because fat loss / fat free mass / muscle mass varies and this can't correlate to how you look and feel through a number on the scales.
✅How to avoid the punishing cycle of feeling bad for something you thought you shouldn’t eat but it was something you really craved at the time.
It was nice, you enjoyed it! Moving on with your day could be the best decision you make. ️
✅Learning to become patient. I totally understand that you may not feel great about yourself but trying to track calories, hit 10k steps, exercise every day, drink 3 litres of water, take all the processed refined crap away, basically not having a life.
Even though this may be something you feel you're trying to better yourself with your physical health we have to understand about the mental side of being able to sustain this.
Impatience can be the biggest risk of you not achieving the goal you want.
Adding a time frame can help motivate you however it can also add unwanted pressure.
Bit of tuff love here but being too specific with a goal is not healthy and can lead to an end date.
This could be a measurement you want to hit or how you picture yourself looking in so many weeks or months.
Start to enjoy the feeling that comes with that process goal and stop putting your measurement so high on your priority list.
We all want to look and feel better about ourselves but usually that comes with barriers.
Your children
A social occasion props up
Your given a deadline for work to be completed
Sometimes they maybe a step backwards
Be sure to take your time and think of just something small tasks that creates the biggest wins!
Because how many times have we had so many limiting beliefs that you can’t change with just a small task?
The same story you tell yourself over and over of what’s the point in doing just one task.
You may think you need to change everything all in one hit but this usually ends in failure.
But we tell ourselves that there is no point in doing 1 simple task a week or day.
However making a decision to hit something which you feel is achievable can build up over time.
1 workout a week is nothing but over a year that’s 52 workouts a year!
Increasing your regular steps, a day by 1000 that’s 364,000 steps a year more!
Delivering 5 push ups a day that’s 1,820 push ups a year!
Running for 5k a week that’s 250k a year!
Deciding to stop and draw a line of consuming more calories at night and going to bed which saved you 200 Cals. That could build to 73,000 a year deficit.
And usually what happens is we generally get good at this and we create habits!
We actually start to see results which makes us do more.
How you get motivated is usually about getting started when you were not.
The reason for the education of resetting your mind around this is very important.
For clients I work with I want to reset their mind and coach them about sustainable ways which avoid less pressure and fit simple tasks which create the biggest results!
The less pressure you have on your mind the better.
