83kg
|
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 |

🗓 Last Sunday I said you haven't got a normal week, you've got about nine of them. I said I'd tell you the one thing I'd do in each. So here it is; nine weeks, one move in each. Read the one you're in and ignore the other eight. 🙂 The on-it week Shopping done, dinners planned. Happens twice a year. The move: write down what you did, then find the one bit you'd still manage on your worst week. That's the only part worth keeping. The rest of it is a holiday from your actual life, and using it...
🚶 Two weeks ago I told you my weight didn't move over fifteen months of me being completely useless, and that one of the two reasons was that I never stopped walking. Fair few of you replied asking the obvious thing: how many steps? So let's do this properly, because the number everyone asks about is the least important part and it's also, genuinely, made up. 10,000 steps is not a health guideline. It's an advert. In 1965 a Japanese company started selling a pedometer called the Manpo-kei —...
What's that glowing yellow orb in the sky? 🌞 We haven't seen it in what feels like a very long time - but I think I remember it being called the sun 🤔 Seasons are weird Reader When it's summer, you can't imagine it being winter, and when it's winter, you can't imagine it being summer And while it definitely isn't summer yet, those first glimpses of March have got me thinking about holidays, the beach, and generally just not having to wear 17 layers of clothes to leave the house All nice...
