You know what to do. You've read the books, bought the courses, tracked the macros — and you're still here. That's because the reason you're not losing weight has nothing to do with food. In this…
I'm trying to lose weight, trying to lose 30 pounds, trying to look better, feel better.
Because the reality is what happens for most people, and again, this is me talking just from my experience here after having worked with thousands of women and had probably tens of thousands of conversations with, like, people who are not clients over the last, like, decade and a half, is, is you're not eating enough.
But the problem is, a- as a whole, you are not eating enough, and that's what's causing you to fall off.
The, the women who join our program are shocked at how much they can eat while still either maintaining, depending if that's the phase we're in, or while still losing weight.
I have lost count of the amount of women who have come in and said, "Jared, 1,200 calories is it for me.
I've tried, and every time I've eaten more than 1,200 calories, I gain weight.
My fitness pal tells me I need 1,200 calories, and I just know in my heart of hearts that is the 12-- that is it for me." And in almost every situation, the same women are shocked to find out they can eat, like, 1,800, 2,000, some 2,500 calories plus.
The same women who said, "Jared, I can't eat more than 1,200 calories." It's because they live and die by 1,200.
They take a scale fluctuation out of context because they don't re- re- realize that the scale is supposed to fluctuate up.
And, but because they live and die by 1,200 calories, they end up being so restricted and so hungry and thinking about food, and then they miss out on family events because, like, you can't go through Starbucks without eating, like, 800 calories.
