Did You Lose Weight?


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 answer is C, you probably don't need my help - I bet you lost around 4-6 pounds since the start of the year.

You are free to go.

If the answer is A or B however, you made the same mistake that 99% of people do in January

You've tried to go too aggressive with exercise or food (or both), realised it makes your life miserable, and quit.

You might have lost a few pounds, but you'll probably go back to 'normal' now and gain those pounds back

You might have lost nothing and wasted a month 📆

The people that answered 'C' will be able to carry dropping about 1 pound a week until they hit their goal, whether that's 10, 20 or 30 pounds

That's the sweet spot you want to get to

No need to overhaul your life, kill yourself in the gym or turn vegan

Just implement small easy habits, daily

Some people can do that on their own

Others need help staying on track and being held to account

If that's you Reader, reply to this email (or DM me on Insta) and we'll get you going

You could easily drop 14 pounds or more by summer. No gym required. ⛅

Don't waste another month

🗓 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...
