You’re not overweight because you overeat 👇🏼

You’re overweight because you under eat... then overindulge!

And the frustrating part is that you probably spend most of the day feeling like you’ve barely eaten anything

The solution isn’t necessarily to eat less

It’s to eat more intentionally throughout the day

Start by prioritising a proper breakfast and lunch with 30g+ protein, carbohydrates, fruit or vegetables and a source of healthy fats

Because eating MORE throughout the day might actually be what helps you eat LESS overall

Comment MEAL PLAN and I’ll send you a guide to make it easy 💛

20kgs down in less than 6 months so far 😍🤝🏼

“Before coaching, I was stuck in a rut with no real idea of what I was doing other than consistently working out. I got to a point where the scales stopped moving and nothing changed for 8 months. I saw an Instagram ad from Meg and something clicked to say this is what I need.

Since starting coaching, I’ve become much more aware of my food choices and the importance of consistency.
Even though I’ve lost 20kgs in 6 months I also understand that the scales aren’t everything. It’s about building better habits, being mindful, becoming more active and continuing to show up even when you’re tired and unmotivated.

One of the biggest things I got out of coaching was the accountability. Having Lauren there to check in with and help keep me focused made me more conscious of the choices I was making. I have also gained a better understanding of nutrition and how to approach my goals in a more sustainable way rather than looking for a “quick fix”. It’s honestly been the easiest 20kgs I’ve ever lost. It hasn’t felt like a diet and I don’t feel like I’m missing out. I wish I started sooner.

If you’re on the fence about coaching, I’d say it’s worth giving yourself the opportunity to invest in yourself. Having someone there for accountability and guidance can make a big difference, especially if you’ve struggled to stay consistent on your own. You don’t have to have everything figured out before you start. That’s part of what MGTVY is there for.”

Before the science police come for me 😂 this reel is a simplified visual of ONE reason your weight can jump after eating more carbs

It’s not as simple as eating an extra 100g of carbs = automatically holding 300-400 grams of water

Your body stores some carbohydrate as glycogen, mainly in your muscles and liver, and each gram of glycogen is stored alongside roughly 3-4g of water

How much you actually store depends on things like your current glycogen stores, activity and overall intake.
AND carbs aren’t the only reason the scale might be higher after eating out

Restaurant and takeaway meals are often higher in sodium, which can temporarily increase water retention

You’ve also probably eaten a larger volume of food than usual - and that food physically has weight while it’s still moving through your digestive system

So that 1-2kg jump you see the next morning?
It isn’t 1-2kg of body fat!

It can be a combination of:
- more glycogen + water
- more sodium + water
- literally more food sitting in your digestive system
The point isn’t to calculate exactly how much water you’re holding

It’s to understand why one higher day on the scale doesn’t mean you’ve undone your progress

Give your body a few days, go back to what you normally do and look at the trend ❤️

This is what a full day of eating can look like while losing a significant amount of body fat, and there are a few things I want you to notice 👇🏼

There’s a lot of food here

And none of it is particularly fancy

No perfectly aesthetic meal prep, complicated recipes or expensive “health foods” like you constantly see on Instagram

Just normal, accessible food that she enjoys and fits into her actual life

Fruit and vegetables add volume, fibre and micronutrients without adding a huge amount of energy

There are carbs at every meal and snack

There are convenience foods

There’s chocolate

And none of those things have stopped her from making incredible progress

Because fat loss doesn’t require the elimination of carbs, sugar or processed foods

It requires a consistent energy deficit

But just telling someone to “eat less” isn’t particularly helpful either…

We want to build that deficit in a way that also considers hunger, nutrition, enjoyment and most importantly - adherence over the long haul

Because the most perfectly calculated diet in the world is useless if you can’t consistently follow it 🎯
