UGH! Why does this 💩 exist on the internet?!?!

It just sets people up to expect something that they’ll never get…. Which leads to feeling frustrated and angry… but not at the person peddling such rubbish, rather at themselves!

The real truth is actually quite simple: a calorie deficit is the absolute only way to lose weight. Done right, it can happen safely and without feeling miserable & hungry all the time.

Adding movement - especially strength training & walking- can help with this tremendously.

If you’d like some help from real coaches who understand science, and care about your happiness & well-being, COMMENT “me” below‼️‼️‼️

You’re eating 1200 calories.
Training 6 days a week.

And the scale hasn’t moved in three weeks.

I see this all the time.

Your issue has nothing to do with discipline.

The problem is that you’re applying a strategy for a 25-year-old to a body that definitely isn’t 25 anymore!!

Here’s the how to fix it:

1️⃣Find your maintenance calories — the number you’d eat to stay exactly where you are.

2️⃣Cut 15-20%. That’s it. Not 40%. Not “eat basically nothing.”

A deficit too steep tells your body to hang onto fat and burn muscle instead — the opposite of what you’re after.

And while you’re at it — protein isn’t optional here. 1g per pound of your goal body weight, non-negotiable.
