Are you Overthinking and Under-Implementing?
Feb 27, 2022
When I was at my heaviest, I was so frustrated I was willing to try ANYTHING to get my weight under control.
I was constantly looking for new diets, new workout plans, and new foods that would move the scale, even just a little bit, in my favor.
I was totally overthinking it!
Here are some of the things I was unnecessarily focused on:
- Time of day I ate or exercised
- Cutting things out like sugar, flour, or carbs
- Calories on the package
- Calories burned on the treadmill counter
- Eating ‘fresh’ vs frozen
- Choosing organic foods
- Confusing my muscles
- Using the right supplements
Looking back, I laugh because so many of those things do absolutely NOTHING for long-term sustainability.
Now that I’ve lost 154lbs and coached thousands of clients on their own weight loss journey using macro nutrition, I know the things that actually work so I can encourage my clients to focus on the right things and use them effectively.
Here’s what I encourage my clients to implement on the regular:
- Counting macros and tracking regularly
- Staying hydrated
- Getting good quality rest
- Reducing and managing stress
- Lifting heavyweights
- Being patient and consistent
- Moving throughout the day (NEAT)
- Choosing whole foods from ALL food groups
And most importantly, having a guided accountability system, like a group coaching program or 1:1 macro coach to turn to when things feel hard or confusing.
You aren’t in this alone.
I spent so much time overthinking things…until I discovered the power of macro nutrition.
If you’ve been overthinking things, we can help get you on the right track.
