It’s been a couple years…

3 more added to the list!

34 Fat Loss / Life Lessons for my 34th Birthday!

1. Fat loss is hard
2. Lasting Fat loss takes longer than you think.
3. When you reach your Fat Loss goal, you have to keep working
4. 90% of what you hear is false.
5. 80% of what you read is out of context
6. The scale measures more than just Fat.
7. Scale weight changes fast!
8. Body composition changes VERY slow
9. Fruit DOES NOT make you fat.
10. Veggies help keep you feeling full
11. Stop chasing methods, learn some Principles!
12. Drink water, if your p*e is dark, drink more water
13. Diet Soda/seltzer helps with hunger management.
14. Amount of meals is personal choice
15. Play to your strengths. Work smarter
16. Workout time of day doesn’t matter
17. Meal timing doesn’t matter
18. CONSISTENCY over intensity
19. Overweight doesn’t always mean unhealthy
20. Plant based doesn’t mean ALL PLANTS / Veggetarian
21. You can’t out do 200 days with 4 days. You CAN out do 5 days with 2!
22. Fat Loss is a side affect of A LOT of things
23. Extreme change brings extreme rebound
24. Fats DO NOT make you fat
25. Carbs DO NOT make you fat
26. Keto fat loss = calorie deficit
27. Carb cycling fat loss = calorie deficit. Ok, Fatloss = Calorie Deficit.
28. A number on the scale won’t make you happy. Same goes for the bank account.
29. Losing Fat builds self confidence. Learning to be patient and trust yourself makes Problems more easy to solve. Critical thinking improves.
30. “You can’t f**k this up”. - there is always another meal to eat. You are one bite and one choice away from back on track!
31. Practice makes perfect. It’s never NOT hard work.
32. Strength is never a weakness! - focus on what you can GAIN as you lose.
33. Lifting burns fat too! - Don’t be a Cardio 🐰, lifting burns calories too. 💪💪
34. HAVE FUN! - things you like are things you continue to do. Make the job easier 😘

Thank you for all the Birthday wishes.

PS. SHARING this post would be a FANTASTIC bday gift 😉

Wrong move!

When I coached and refereed hockey, I had to do courses to be able to be around and work with children.

Some for educate for being around them as a young adult, some for dealing with conflict between players and coaches.

Some to deal with inappropriate situations.

A fight/argument between players or Coaches was the LEAST of my worries.

That should be an easy fix. - SUSPENSION OF INDIVIDUALS INVOLVED.

You don’t CANCEL the part of the game that teaches SPORTSMANSHIP.

Major fail.
Majorly disappointed.

It’s a sad day for Hockey is NL.

🏒 SPORTSMANSHIP HAS BEEN CANCELLED? 🤝

No more post-game handshakes. Two schools of thought on this issue for sure.

From VOCM:

A familiar play of sportsmanship in most levels of hockey in Newfoundland and Labrador is coming to an end.

Citing altercations involving players and coaches, Hockey NL is banning the post-game handshake in the new year. Hockey NL says players and coaches have been suspended because of incidents which occur after the final buzzer.

Instead, prior to the opening face-off, the home team will go to the bench and the visiting team will skate by the bench and do a glove/tap handshake wishing the home team a good game.

After the game, both teams will be directed to their dressing rooms by the officials.

The change takes effect for all games following the Christmas break.

🙈🙈

You can’t even make this stuff up. This is why I post on social media. To cut through this absolute nonsense.

This doctor told a patient she saw someone go into diabetic ketoacidosis from carrots. I was a medical student at the time. I was usually very quiet, but I spoke up and said that never happened.

It was quite awkward, and the patient laughed, but I was annoyed.

Eat your carrots and be careful of who you listen to. 😂❤️

I spent the evening at Elite tattoo studios yesterday.

It was great to get reacquainted with Bill Hiscock after a few years of no tattoos.

Tattoo guns have changed a lot, that’s that’s for sure!

He spent a couple hours with the Medic Alert Tags - They look GREAT!
Bye Bye annoying necklace I forget to wear half the time. 🥳🥳

It’ll be pretty hard to forget these ones…

Then we finished the day with a quick trip down to my calf.
My right calf - it’s noticeable smaller.

It’s my “little calf”.

Thanks Bill and the crew at Elite.

Time to plan the next one!
