MOVE WITH MEL

Rest is part of the process ❤️‍🩹

Rest hard, so you can show up even harder.

And be consistent when you’re healthy, so you can rest guilt-free when your body needs it.

You aren’t weak, lazy, or someone who “doesn’t want it bad enough” because you rest when you’re sick. You’re being smart.

You won’t lose meaningful muscle or all your progress from taking 1–2 weeks out of the gym. It isn’t “ruining your streak” or throwing you off the bandwagon. It’s a temporary pause while your body recovers.

(And if you’re sick aaaalllll the freaking time, it could be worth looking into. There may be an underlying health issue, poor recovery, or even nutrient deficiencies contributing to it. Listen to what your body is trying to tell you.)

Get well, rest hard, and get back on your feet ❤️‍🔥

The mistakes I made so you don’t have to AND the process I used to strip weight off + maintain results!!!

Body transformations take many months to YEARS (not WEEKS!!!) so if you need help with this stuff (structure, education, a step by step process that makes sense FOR YOU) then comment “MOVE” below and I’ll be in touch with you

I need ya’ll to learn how the scales work, build a neutral relationship to them instead of attaching yourself to a number!!

You literally need to be in a SURPLUS of 7,700 calories (that’s over your maintenance cals btw) to see a true 1 kg gain of body fat.

So relax, record the numbers, and move on by STICKING to the plan, ten toes down.

Delayed gratification, scale neutrality and consistency for WEEKS is what’s going to give you that fat loss result,

Not seeing a spike, spiralling, going off plan because “it’s not working”, then coming back and restricting when you are ready to “lock in”.

And I get it can be frustrating!! Trust me, 35 kgs down has required a lot of patience and trust!!

But that’s exactly why hiring a coach who can guide you through this, help you break these mental barriers and see the results you want can be crucial to your success.

We become what we repeatedly tell ourselves we are!!

If you keep identifying with your current body, your current weight and your current behaviours it’s going to be VERY hard to become someone different.

Instead, try bridging the gap between who you are today and the woman you’re becoming.

Ask yourself 👇🏻

“What would she choose in this moment?”

Language is POTENT. Identity is DEEP. And when you identify with something for long enough, you start behaving in ways that reinforce that identity 🪞

Stop identifying with your current body, and start identifying with the habits, behaviours and standards of the woman you want to become ❤️‍🔥

Because one day you’ll wake up and realise you didn’t just lose the weight, you became the version of you you’ve been dreaming about for YEARS

I’ve lived it, and I coach this change every single day. The work is deep.

Sometimes a training plan and macros aren’t the only things you need.

Comment “MOVE” and I’ll shoot you a dm about what working together could look like, to help you bridge this gap 💛

Forever grateful to the version of me who showed up anyway ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

We don’t say lifestyle change for the hell of it ✨🛼♟️

Real change = lifestyle change, for good!

If you are losing weight only to regain it OR you feel like your results are impossible to maintain,

DM me the word “LIFESTYLE” and let’s chat!!
