1:1 Diet with Shona & Craig

Week 1 of the 6 week challenge and I'm 5lb down!!

But that's not even the best bit!

My skin is clearing up, my energy has increased and brain fog has reduced. And of course my clothes are feeling better on

😍🙌🙌

Second wave of the 6 week challenge starts Monday 9th!

A lot can be achieved in 6 weeks!!

Message me for more info!

Ps 👇 my own results last year

Anyone else?!?! 🤣 🤣

So I've indulged over Xmas and I've slipped, who hasn't?! (If you haven't, I applaud you!)

But my skin is telling me, my tummy is telling me and my head is telling me... IT'S TIME.

You know that feeling when enough is enough and you realise only you can do something about how you are feeling? Yeah, that!!

SO MONDAY 2nd I'm starting a 6 week challenge!! 6 weeks on plan with a prizes on offer (as if reducing the number wasn't enough of an incentive!)

Who is in?! 💪

Just opening my first pack of Chocolate cereal!!!

I'm surprised at how much it makes, it's chocolatey, crispy and if you love chocolate rice crispies, you won't be disappointed!!!

Ps yes, of course I drank the milk 😂😂😂

I'm so proud of my latest dieter!!! One week in and first weigh in smashed!! She says her jeans keep falling down - now that's a win! 💪

Well done lovely!! 😍😍

Who loves cereal?!

New meal replacement product just out!!

Some comments so far....
"Crunchy to the last mouthful"
"Really chocolatey"

Get in my basket!!!! 😱

When you reach for your emergency stash at the bottom of your bag and it looks like road kill 😂😂😂

Still tastes great though!!! 😂😂😂

I've been asked this a few times recently so I thought I'd share for all!

✅ Yes, occasionally, but only if you are on step 3 or above.

❎ Steps 1 and 2, no. Here's why.....

It's to do with the ingredients (like Citric Acid) in sugar free/diet drinks as it interferes with ketosis and brings on hunger pangs for some! Most sugar free drinks like Diet Coke contain it.

Although we aren't a ketosis diet, Steps 1 and 2 will naturally get you there which helps you lose the weight faster! We don't want anything knocking you out of ketosis ideally and we definately don't want you feeling hungry, do we?!

Our water flavourings have been designed to be compatible with the diet and ketosis so they are great on any step if you find plain old water a bit boring!

Here's a trusted article if you want to read more on it...

'Sugar-Free' Food And Drinks Actually Make You Eat More Artificial sweeteners are basically evil.

⚖ Wow, what a busy week it's been!
1 new dieter and 3 returning dieters!!!

🎄All ready to smash it before Xmas!!!
Who else is ready?!?!

🙋‍♀️ My own weight loss journey started this time last year....

On the 1st November I started the diet on 'Step 1b'.

✅ I lost a whopping 1 Stone 2lbs in 3 weeks!!

✅ By 10th December I'd lost 1.5 Stone

🦃 I then decided to relax a little until 28th December when I gained half a stone in turkey 🦃 😂😂😂

✅ I restarted 28th Dec and lost 1 Stone 3lbs in 5 weeks.

😱 I was wholly on plan for 9.5 weeks and even with that half stone gain over Xmas, overall I'd lost 2 Stone!!!! 🎉

🍾🎉 I then went on to lose 3 stone in total and have maintained that with a 6lb tolerance ever since (meaning I still weigh in each week and won't allow myself to put more than 6lb back on - I really don't want to feel the way I did before I started this journey ever again!)

I think the pics speak for themselves 👇 👇

Are you ready having read that?!?! Message me to get started!!!

Oooo, I've just seen this and love our Cappuccino shake!!! *goes to kitchen* 😂😂

Warm up your evening with our cappuccino shake 🫘

Here's how:

- Add a small amount of cool water & mix into a paste.
- Then add 200mls of almost boiling water & whisk to a smooth consistency.
- Add cinnamon for extra taste. Nutmeg works well too.

And so very simply, you’ll have a perfect drink…

Food prep for my week away (aka pooch sitting!)

Food prep has never been so simple!! 😂😂

Ok…. Picture this…. You want 2 stone off.

There are 3 roads…. Each one will take you to a wonderful place called “YOUR GOAL”

So “YOUR GOAL” is a place where you feel exuberant with the way you look and feel, happy that all your clothes fit, you feel like you’ve been given a new lease of life as you’re more active, less tired, have more energy, sleeping better and with no aches and pains - it’s sounds amazing right?!

When you begin, you want to get to “YOUR GOAL” as quick as possible - no one wants to be on any diet for years (but we are 🤦🏼‍♀️)

Road 1 - stick to plan, get the weight off, stay strong and strict with yourself - REMEMBER YOUR WHY - WHY you want the weight off..
If we HAD to stay on plan - Dr’s orders, we’d do it!
Time taken 2 months (a stone a month, 2 stone gone!) Motivation stays strong, job done! 👏🏼
You arrive at “YOUR GOAL”😇
🏎 I like to think of travelling this road in 6th gear the whole way!!! 🏎

Road 2 - start off good, motivation weakens, you have days, nights out with friends because “I still want to live”.
You struggle to get back on track the following day. Weekly weighins come with more excuses than pounds off!
2 months on and you’re still chasing that first stone saying the diets “not working”?!
If you keep messing about then you may get to “YOUR GOAL” in 6 months. 🤷🏼‍♀️
🚙 You travel this road constantly stalling, using more fuel!!! 🚙

Road 3 - you want this “so bad” but can’t get through a full day without nibbling.
The excuses that come are endless, “the diet is too expensive” and “it’s not working” or “I want to eat”
You blame everyone but yourself.
Motivation is gone.
You never reach “YOUR GOAL” but you ‘try’ again year after year.
🚙You travel this road and breakdown - it’ll cost you more than you thought! 🚙

We ALL know the best way to do any diet - simply stick to it! Consistency works!
If you want to eat whilst on the 1.1 diet then stop punishing yourself by saying you can’t stick to plan as you’ve chosen to follow the lower steps - dance around the plan, move up the steps, get your book out and pick the healthy options which will keep you on plan and motivated - the scales will still move in the right direction.

Cost wise… it’s actually cheaper to stick to plan than it is to keep messing about!
Stay focused, move up the steps to maintain, it’ll keep the weight off.
If you do the plan, and don’t move up the steps, increasing your calorie intake then the weight will be back on quickly - 1.1 diet is tried and tested, it’s been medically researched - it works if you follow it correctly!!!
