Saving calories is the reason you can’t lose belly fat in your late 20s and 30s. I know that’s not what you’ve been told. 😏
Here’s the day I see on repeat: you train, you have breakfast, then 11am rolls around and you’re starving but you “save it” for lunch. Then 3pm hits and you cannot get enough food. You eat your snack, then go back for more, and then you spend the night wondering what’s wrong with you.🤬
Nothing is wrong with you. Saving calories is underfuelling, and every time you underfuel, you overeat somewhere else to make up for it. It’s not willpower. 😱
The fix isn’t eating less and burning more. It’s fuelling properly while you build muscle, inside a small planned deficit you can actually stick to. Not counting calories. Knowing exactly how to portion your food, what and how much to eat, and how to train for your body.
That’s what gets you the 5cm off your waist, the 3pm calm, the takeaway without guilt, and the quiet where the “I should be good today” voice used to be. Not willpower. A plan. 🤏🏽🤏🏽🤏🏽
