The number on the scale...
I would like to all have a quick read 🙂
You all have started a journey to better health and gut health, to loose weight and to become the healthiest you 🙂
We ask you all to take pictures for your own eyes, measurements and to weigh yourself. All those things are very helpful tools to keep motivated and track your progress. For those that are fixated on the number on your scale, it is ONLY a number! Weight loss is not a straight forward continuously downwards process. When you use the "My Weight" app on your phone, the graph will most likely look like the print out from an ECG machine. It goes down, down, up, nothing, down, up... you get the idea.
When the scale doesn't move for a couple of days or even goes up a little, then please do not panic! This can have so many different reasons! The ladies could be coming towards those days of the month, your body is holding on to fluids, you are going to expect a WHOOSH... If you are following the program, you eat every 2-3 hours, drink your water, eat according to the meal plan, not more or less, then you are doing everything right. Our bodies are not machines! There are so many different processes going on at the same time for different reasons. Throw a few hormones into the mix, being a little stressed, sleeping not enough or too much, having a little cold... all those factors will impact how your body reacts.
Especially in the first couple of weeks our bodies are adjusting to new foods, less calories, clean eating, regular eating, the lack of carbs and the training to burn fat as energy source. We all have to give our bodies a little time to adjust.
The PH@TT program works guys but different for every individual! Some lose fast, others slow and steady, some lose lots of kg and others see the most progress in losing cm!
We are all unique and so are our journeys! Trust the program and trust in your body! It will do the best it can 😉
Don't panic! It's only a number !!!
Have a great Saturday night!
