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 that in 3-4 days I'll be back at 81Kg What's the point of this email, other than me confessing my sins? (That's a joke BTW, overeating at Christmas is NOT a sin) Well - if you're starting a diet in 2025 - you need to weigh daily, and you need to NOT get discouraged by short-term spikes in weight It's virtually impossible to gain 2kg of fat in a day But you can easily store 2kg of undigested food and water in your body If you don't know this, gaining a Kilo or two in a day is enough to make you demotivated and quit Don't This is the #1 reason why people fail at diets Their weight goes up by a kilo in a day, they think they've ruined everything, and they quit You HAVE to make a MINIMUM 3 month commitment and stick at it There will be disappointments and annoyances along the way, but you need to battle through them It won't all be smooth sailing. If you're not prepared to accept that, you may not be ready to diet yet If you want help in 2025 - reply or DM me on Intsa 👇 Joe WhatsApp: +447590988201 Insta: https://www.instagram.com/joe_johnson_9_to_5/ Review Me: https://g.page/r/Cff1IczzxIbBEBM/review Website: 9-to-5-nutrition.com Email: joe.johnson@9-to-5-nutrition.com |
January is finally over You made it Reader, well done 👍 It's still pretty cold and dark, but we're through the most depressing month of the year I'm guessing you would have tried to lose weight in Jan though... How did it go? Did you; a) Commit to the gym 6x times a week, get burned out after 3 weeks and quit? 🥵 b) Give up any food and drink that brings you any joy, get bored after 4 weeks and quit? 🥗 c) Get into a reasonable calorie deficit and start walking for 30-60 minutes a day? 📉 If the...

Don't worry, it's not what it sounds like (I've never set foot inside my local massage shop and I don't think I want to) 😕 What actually caught my eye was the poster on the front door "Fast Weight Loss for £10" COME ON PEOPLE. It's 2025 Fast Weight Loss for Ten British Pounds... Seriously? If it were that easy, no one would be fat We'd all pay a tenner, get our dream physique and live happily ever after We know it doesn't work like that. It's not that easy (although weight loss is very...
