I was shocked when I stepped on the scales this morning 83kg 😬 Not the numbers I wanted to see staring back at me (I'm trying to maintain around 81kg at the moment) So I gained 2kg gained in 2 days But am I worried? Fuck no. I've been eating and drinking like an idiot Christmas Day and Boxing Day (I'm sure you have as well Reader) I probably have a ton of food still sitting my digestive system And I ate a lot of salt and carbs, which will have caused temporary water retention I can GUARANTEE...

If you follow a bunch of these annoying fitness people like me, you'll probably notice they're all talking about Christmas 🎄 It's either; a) Stick to your diet all through Christmas, have one slice of Turkey and a brussel sprout on Christmas Day. Make your family do press-ups before they open their presents or b) Go wild. The more chocolate you can cram into your mouth every day of December, the healthier your relationship with food will be. Live a little! Neither approach is right or wrong...

"I'll start next week" How many times have you made that promise to yourself?

I hear it all the time "It's so easy to gain weight" And that's 100% true Reader Just look at the environment we live in; Deliveroo 🏍 Petrol stations ⛽ Vending machines THAT aisle at the Supermarket you know you should avoid 🍫 You have the opportunity to quickly and cheaply buy high-calorie food everywhere you turn But it's also easier than ever to lose weight It might not seem like it Reader, but you've got it good 20 years ago, we didn't have MyFitness Pal 📱 The Weight Loss industry was...
