Here we go again 🤣🍚

Let’s talk rice…

Now no hate to Lidl GB cause I used their rice as an example

You’ve made yourself a lovely curry for tea… life is good… smells unreal… you weigh out 100g of rice to cook for yourself and log it in your app like the responsible calorie-counting athlete you are 😌

Except…

You weighed 100g UNCOOKED rice…
…but logged 100g COOKED rice 💀💀💀

Congratulations 🙌🏻
You’ve just accidentally under-logged your food by the calorie equivalent of a small second dinner 😂

🍚 100g cooked rice = roughly 115 calories
🍚 100g uncooked rice = roughly 378 calories

That’s a casual little difference of…

🔥 263 calories

But don’t worry…
I’m sure your fat loss “plateau” is definitely hormonal and not because your rice is committing fraud behind your back 🤣

The best part?

People will swear blind:
“Yeah but it’s still 100g of rice though”

Yes Mick…
and a grape is technically the same thing as a raisin, but one of them has clearly been through some life experiences 😭

So moral of the story:
⚖️ Check whether you’re logging food as cooked or uncooked before accidentally turning your calorie deficit into a maintenance phase.

Anyway…
who still hates me after this one? 👀🤣

Before I get the Life’s too short comments,

Aye it was especially when I was 19st and pre-diabetic, but I’m sure the Facebook experts will still debate tracking it in the comments

And diagnosing me with some sort of eating disorder 🤣

i started teaching myself muscle ups yesterday with nothing but a couple of insta videos and wishful thinking 😅

and honestly? i was anxious af

it was new. i didn’t fully know what i was doing. i stood there for a good few minutes deliberating, overthinking, talking myself in and out of it

which is mad when you think i’ve been training nearly 15 years and i’m a PT

but that’s the point

no matter how long you’ve been in the game, there will always be something that makes you feel like a beginner again

something that humbles you

something that makes you doubt yourself for a second

and that’s okay

you’re allowed to be experienced and still feel unsure

you’re allowed to be strong and still feel nervous

you’re allowed to not be good at something (yet)

this is your reminder to try anyway

be the beginner
do the awkward reps
figure it out as you go

that’s where the growth is 💪🏼

this girls the queen of consistency and that doesn’t mean that she for one second restricted herself, she still goes out, goes on hol, skips workouts occasionally and eats out fairly regularly

a lot of people never reach higher calories
because they don’t stick out the initial low-cal phase. (and i don’t mean 1,200)

that phase isn’t forever, it’s a stepping stone.
done properly, it allows you to build calories back up, fuel training and actually change your body.

the goal isn’t to stay low.
the goal is to earn the increase.

feb’s here and you’re still sat in the carpark giving yourself a pep talk bcos you’re a big ball of anxiety and stepping foot in a gym hasn’t got much easier

gymtimidation doesn’t magically disappear after january but confidence does come from showing up anyway.

save this for your next “should i just go home?” moment 💪🏼

client cancellations = sharpening up the old 🧠

so i asked my clients what their biggest struggle was lately and they said sleep!

so i compiled a guide full of tips to help build better habits that will help you to get a better sleep.

so if you’ve been struggling to switch off at night and find yourself tossing and turning, stressing while counting the hours down til you have to get up again - then try these and see if you notice a difference!

working from home doesn’t have to mean not hitting your step target 👀

steps don’t need to come from a long walk or extra workouts, they also come from moments of movement

5 minutes here.
pacing calls.
walking to make a coffee.
moving between tasks.
it all adds up.

focus on breaking up sitting, stacking steps onto what you already do and aiming for a bit more than yesterday, not perfection 🚶‍♀️

want more tips like this? all this info and more included in my education hub - which you get lifetime access to when you’re my client 💕
