🏆Super proud of my client Gunter from Switzerland! ⁠🏆⁠
⁠
It's amazing what can happen when you decide to focus on doing it properly and not looking for the short-term solutions.⁠✅⁠
⁠
The truth is... you should use the KISS principle to about everything in life... why would you not apply it to your weight loss journey?⁠ 🤔⁠
⁠
I have this discussion on a near daily basis that people do restrictive diets, meal plans, crash diets, run for hours and expect results immediately...⁠😅⁠
⁠
Truth is.. whatever you can do sustainably is what succeeds. ⁠👈⁠
⁠
If you want results similar to Gunter shoot me a Dm with the word "Transform"!

The truth is that weight loss is a journey, it took you time to gain the weight and it will take you time to lose it...

I remember when I was trying to lose weight it was always an uphill battle fueled by caffeine and willpower.

I NEED TO stick to only eating veggies

I NEED TO eat protein

I NEED TO do these workouts

I NEED TO say no to donuts

This would work for around 1 month, well even 2 months sometimes if I was really good about it but then the inevitable would happen...

I would lose willpower, my work would get too busy or I would just lose the motivation as my results weren't what I wanted it to be.

This was a big struggle for years, always yoyoing between achieving my goal and then regressing back to them.

The truth was that I needed to find a more temporary solution so I began to look into it and found that it was something that I wasn't expecting...

Fun.

I realized that all my attempts in the past were based on guilt, shame, and an overall lack of appreciation of how I felt.

Connecting the dots I realized that was exactly why I was pre-maturely stopping all my workouts and routines.

I wasn't having fun. The lack of fun was translating to a lack of results as it didn't allow me to stick at it for long enough to actually see the results that I was working so hard for.

I changed my approach and switched my focus from 'working hard and grinding' to 'finding fun and enjoyment of being active' and the results speak for themselves I haven't had to worry about my extra weight for over 5 years now.

If you're struggling to find a way to lose weight that's fun for you or you're not sure what might be the best approach for you let me know and we can chat in my dms'

I'm here to help as I've been where you've been before.

Much love and have fun!

Don’t overwhelm yourself. Reduce your expectations and just start with the first step. Once you’ve lost your first kg you can then move onto your next. Small wins = Big wins.

Biting off more than you can chew will leave you unmotivated and frustrated.

𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗬𝗢-𝗬𝗢 𝗱𝗶𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀, 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝘁.

The struggle of weight loss is never that it's not possible, it's just hard to keep it up consistently.

Everyone can lose 1kg, 2kg or even 5kg. The real problem is keeping the weight off forever.

I wanted to address how to overcome this in todays post so that you can hopefully have as much success as my clients do.

The best way to create long term sustainability with weight-loss is to not think of it as a means to an end but rather as a lifestyle change.

Whenever you see something as 'temporary' you will in-return treat it as such.

👉 Doing liquid diets
👉 Stop eating carbs
👉 Train every day
👉 Spend all your time walking
👉 Say no to all your favourite foods...

These are all 'quick solutions' that help you lose weight fast but they won't get you all the way to where you need to be and they won't help you stay there forever...

Carbs are way too good, it almost seems like a criminal offense to put those on hault haha

What you want to focus on for sustainable weight-loss is not the 'do this/ don't do this' approach (Temporary af lol) rather you want to learn how to find an approach that suits you, your preferences and way of life.

In the end any diet does or does not work only depending on one thing. Who is it for.

Someone who loves keto and never misses carbs should then stick to that! Putting them on a high carb/ high protein diet (even if it is more optimal) will only lead to them being frustrated and doing it temporarily.

What you need is your lifestyle to be perfectly balanced with the right foods and workout plan so it adds to your life, and then allows you to keep it up long term!

So many people come to me thinking they need a diet plan but really what they need to do is change habits, stop thinking it's as simple as eating a salad and even at times, eating more donuts 🙂

To your weightloss journey!

THIS SHOULD BE OBVIOUS…

Losing weight is like driving…

(I have no license, so don’t follow me for driving tips lol)

If you don’t know what road you need to take when, how can you ever expect to arrive where you want to when you want to?

IF YOU'RE NOT DOING THIS TO LOSE WEIGHT YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME⁣⁣

If I got a 1 cent for every time that I heard people talking about 'the right approach' I would be a millionaire, lol well probably more like billionaire at this point lol⁣⁣
⁣
Whenever people want to lose weight they always believe that there is 'one' way to approach it.⁣⁣
⁣
They stick to ONE meal plan⁣⁣
⁣
They stick to ONE workout plan⁣⁣
⁣
They stick to ONE fasting approach etc.⁣⁣
⁣
The truth is, it's not about the method. It's about you and what fits best with you.⁣⁣
⁣
Although the expression 'walk a mile in someone else's shoes' goes very far⁣⁣
⁣
In the case of weight loss, this is not something that you should implement if you are truly looking to achieve long-term success.⁣⁣
⁣
Copying someone else's approach or just using willpower to reach your goals will only lead you frustrated as it's only going to give you results in the short term (if you can even do it)⁣⁣
⁣
The reason being is that you're doing someone that doesn't fit with your lifestyle.⁣⁣
⁣
If you're trying to stick to a routine that requires you to eat 6 meals per day to lose weight but you're extremely busy throughout the day that simply isn't going to work for you.⁣⁣
⁣
Is it because the approach isn't right? perhaps, but more that it doesn't suit you and your schedule.⁣⁣
⁣
You ultimately succeed or fail depending on one thing. How your approach allows you to live your life and also achieve your goal at the same time.⁣⁣
⁣
If it leans too much to one side or the other, you will either not see any results or you will only be able to sustain it temporarily.⁣⁣
⁣
The solution is simple. Find an approach that is built for you specifically, that way you will not only be able to achieve your goal but you will also be able to sustain it long-term!⁣⁣

ATTENTION BUSY PEOPLE WHO WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT:⁣
⁣
If you can't stick to your routine it's not because you're "Too Busy" ⁣
⁣
It's because you are-> Not Consistent.⁣
⁣
The truth is that all diets work but the problem is that people do diets or workout programs that do not suit them and their unique traits and goals.⁣
⁣
As human beings, we are all uniquely different.⁣
⁣
Regarding weight loss these all play a role:⁣
⁣
👉 Metabolism ⁣
👉 Age ⁣
👉 Height⁣
👉 Weight⁣
👉 Stress⁣
⁣
It always frustrates me when clients come to me with plans that haven't been custom-made for them.⁣
⁣
They assume it's as easy as copy-pasting someone else's routine to their own. ⁣
⁣
Then they wonder why they can't stick to it and they're not seeing the results that they were hoping for...⁣
⁣
Achieving your goals with weight loss just comes down to finding YOUR genetic blueprint and then executing on it.⁣
⁣
I can promise you already once you have something that works for you and you specifically there will be no 'I'm too busy' anymore. ⁣
⁣
Takeaway: Don't copy someone else's approach, just because it works for them doesn't mean that it will work for you! Consistency comes from an approach that is made for you!

When you realize… that how you feel is what you think about and you can control what you think about… 😂

But, for real though. It is up to you and what you decide to focus on.

What are the tools you need to do this?

1.) Accepting your situation no matter how good or bad

2.) Affirming what you wanna achieve in life and visualizing it to yourself daily until it becomes a reality 😎

I hereby give you permission to not give a f*ck and show up exactly how you want to today 😎

Breath in. Breath out. You got this.
