Achieving fat loss means making a change to your current lifestyle habits. In my personal journey, I dedicated a considerable amount of time to enhancing my strength and muscle mass by consuming a surplus of calories. This phase was enjoyable and rewarding as I witnessed my body transform and grow stronger. It was fun whilst it lasted but it was time to lose the excess fat. This transition marked a new chapter in my fitness journey, where I shifted my focus towards creating a calorie deficit.
Below are 10 sacrifices and tips for fat loss for mums which helped me to achieve 6kg weight loss in 12 weeks:
1. Gave up alcohol - those who know me I love a bevvy 🤣
2. Meal prepped all my own food and avoided premade where possible (and no take aways)
3. Ensured I had 30-50g protein per meal
4. Had half a plate of vegetables most lunches and dinners
5. Went to bed earlier and woke up earlier to fit in cardio whilst kids were in bed (plot twist: I feel so good for this and will keep it up)
6. Gave up working on PBs and focused on RPE listening to my body (you can lose strength in a deficit)
7. I walked on the treadmill instead of watching tv in the evening once the kids were in bed to get my steps in that I couldn’t manage in the day
8. Tracked everything and was honest with myself - days especially during PMS were hard but accountability made me stay on track
9. Spent 4 hours a week meal prepping for the week ahead
10. Doing it even when I didn’t feel like it
Being disciplined is so empowering - and if you’re thinking ‘I don’t have time for that, or I have hormonal issues or chronic illnesses so would never achieve that’ … you can do it!
I’m a coparenting mum of 2 with 2 jobs, and with the added bonus of PCOS & Low Thyroid. I’m here to say it is possible!
I’ve made an affordable 45 page e-book explaining everything I did from nutrition to exercise, macros, supplements, lifestyle goals, mobility, support tools and a guide on reverse dieting and it’s only £34.99
Feedback:
This e-book has finally made everything make sense!
Just downloaded this and this girl has so much knowledge and puts so much hard work into what she does, would definitely recommend downloading.
It is nice to finally understand more about fat loss, not just calories and it has made it so much easier to change my lifestyle knowing what I need to do.
As a gym girl anyway, what a set up! Super easy to follow and super easy for someone non-gym to follow.
I am half way through and have lost 6lbs I am so happy thank you!
