💀 STOP LYING ABOUT YOUR INTAKE 💀

As a PT and coach, more often than not, before people start with me, chances are they’re either going to lie or be in a state of denial when I ask for their current calorie intake

Why? People don’t like to believe they’re the sole reason they’re carrying too much fat. People like to believe there’s a sciencey reason to why they’re overweight. “I’m insulin resistant”, “I have a slow metabolism”, “my body clings on to carbs”, “My body type is endomorph, so I naturally store high levels of fat”. Ok, but even if these were reasons why you were storing too much fat (which they aren’t), you still don’t gain weight without the surplus calorie intake 🤷🏼‍♀️
.
Even if you were an ‘endomorph’, insulin resistant, had a slow metabolism and your body clung on to carbs, you still wouldn’t be overweight without eating too much for your movement or basic maintenance needs. If you eat too much for what you physically move, you will gain weight. It’s that simple. Science is our friend, so let’s get off its back 🔬

If you can’t exercise or move much for whatever circumstances, find out (or have someone find out) your basic maintenance calories and either eat to them (to maintain your current weight) or eat just below them (to gradually lose weight). Don’t buy in to supplements, special diets, stomach wraps or corsets (???), just eat a little less 🤓
