Coach❤️Theah Status Check
🔲 Weigh-in Wednesday "WIW"
🔲How is your weight-loss or how are you doing compared to your goals?
❤️Are you feeling overwhelmed, excited or lost? ask yourself?
❤️ What went well last week? Why did it go well?
❤️ What did I struggle with? Why did I struggle?
❤️ Was I able to eat more protein when it was prepared ahead of time?
❤️ What does my week ahead look like? What challenges might I face?
❤️ What do I need to do today to make sure I can eat lean protein at every meal?
❤️Are my meals planned? What do I need to shop for?
❤️How can I prepare to keep going after the challenge?
❤️Am I eating when I'm not hungry?
Weight-Loss:
Not everyone on this challenge was focused on weight-loss but, it is usually a motivator to change your diet and start focusing on what your eating. However, if weight-loss is your goal, it can become frustrating when you don't see the scale moving. Here are some things to consider:
❤️️ How much are you eating? Calories do matter
❤️️ How many carbohydrates are you consuming? Some people have to drop to 30 grams per day to continue to see the scale move
❤️Are you eating when not hungry? Snacking?
❤️Fats - we want to have healthy fats but, are you adding too many
❤️How much dairy are you consuming? it is usually a weight loss staller
❤️Nuts & Nut Butters - snacking on nuts packs adds up quickly, check your portions & carbs
Coach❤️Theah tip: Take pictures and measurements, the scale doesn't always tell the whole story
Lastly, reflect on how you are feeling overall?
❤️️ Are you sleeping better?
❤️️ Do you have more energy?
❤️️ Are you more alert and thinking more clearly?
What to expect tomorrow:
❤️I'll share my thoughts on how to keep going
❤️Tomorrow will be a high Protein day
❤️Target macros tomorrow will be:
Target 25% of your total macros ~ so, you will be at 500 or less calories
Protein will make up 80% of the calories (60 grams or more)
Carbs will be <10 grams
Fat is @ 20 grams less
❤️Protein days can help break through a weight loss stall or accelerate weight loss
❤️If you are struggling with carbs and counting / protein days are great to reduce the stress of all that
❤️You are ALLOWED to eat whatever you want ~ you are choosing foods that are consistent with your goals ❤️
