I hate to be the one to tell you this
. But the foods you didn’t track today still count 👀


A splash of oil in the pan.
A few bites while cooking.
The handful of nuts you grabbed walking past the pantry.
The sauce you didn’t measure.
The milk in your coffees.
A few pieces of chocolate after dinner.
Finishing what was left on your kid’s plate.

Individually? Not a big deal.

But across an entire day, those “little extras” can easily turn into hundreds of unaccounted calories.

And suddenly the 300–500 calorie deficit you thought you were in
 is gone.

This is why someone can genuinely feel like they’re “doing everything right” but still not see the scale move.

You don’t need to obsess over every crumb you eat.

But if fat loss has stalled, start paying attention to the things you’re not tracking because sometimes that’s exactly where the missing calories are hiding.

Awareness > guessing.

Do you agree or disagree with my solution? đŸ€”âŹ‡ïž

2 in 3 Australian adults are overweight or obese. And 1 in 4 Australian children are too.

Read that again.

This isn’t just an adult problem anymore and if we want those numbers to change, I think education needs to start much earlier.

We teach kids maths, English and science, but how much do we actually teach them about something they’ll interact with multiple times every single day for the rest of their lives?

Food and nutrition.

And I’m NOT talking about teaching children to obsessively track calories, fear certain foods or worry about their weight.

I’m talking about nutrition literacy.

Understanding what calories actually are.

Understanding protein, carbohydrates and fats.

Understanding portions, energy balance and food quality.

Understanding how the food they eat affects their health, development, performance and wellbeing.

Because if someone spends the first 20 years of their life developing poor habits with very little understanding of nutrition, we shouldn’t be surprised when they spend much of adulthood trying to undo them.

Especially when excess weight is now being reported as overtaking smoking as a leading contributor to poor health in Australia.

Prevention starts with education.

Teaching kids about nutrition shouldn’t make them afraid of food.

Done properly, it should give them the knowledge and confidence to make informed choices for the rest of their lives.

Before you start cutting calories, increasing cardio and chasing fat loss
 check what’s happening under the hood first. đŸ©ž

Here are 3 blood tests women should consider before starting a fat loss phase, to support both your health AND your results.

1. FASTED BLOOD GLUCOSE
Gives insight into blood sugar regulation, which can influence energy, hunger, cravings and metabolic health.

2. ENDOCRINE HORMONES
Helps assess your hormonal health and may provide context around your cycle, energy, recovery and body composition.

3. THYROID MARKERS
Your thyroid plays an important role in metabolism and energy expenditure, making it valuable to assess before entering a deficit.

Bloodwork isn’t a fat loss hack but it can help identify health concerns that may need attention before you push harder with fewer calories and more training.

Your fat loss plan shouldn’t come at the expense of your health.

Always discuss appropriate testing and results with your GP or qualified healthcare professional. đŸ©ž

“TOO MUCH PROTEIN ISN’T HEALTHY” another headline designed to make you scared of food. 🙃

Every few months it feels like there’s a new nutrient or food group being demonised.

Carbs are bad.
Fat is bad.
Sugar is toxic.
Now apparently
 protein is the problem.

Scary headlines get clicks. But nutrition requires a little more context than that.

Protein plays an important role in:

* Maintaining & building muscle
* Recovery and training performance
* Keeping you fuller for longer
* Preserving lean mass during fat loss
* Supporting healthy ageing

Does that mean MORE protein is always better? Of course not.

Protein still contributes to your overall energy intake. If you’re consuming significantly more protein than you need and that pushes your total calories into a consistent surplus, weight gain can occur.

But that’s very different from saying “protein makes you gain weight” or “high protein is unhealthy.”

Instead of constantly looking for ONE nutrient to blame, zoom out.

Your overall energy intake, nutritional quality, food variety, fibre, fruit & vegetable intake and individual requirements matter far more than fear-based headlines about a single macronutrient.

Nutrition doesn’t need another food group to demonise.

It needs context.

Fasted cardio sounds logical


No food = no energy coming in = your body has to burn more body fat, right?

Not quite.

Yes, during fasted cardio your body may use a higher percentage of fat for fuel during that session.

But burning more fat during your workout doesn’t automatically mean you’ll lose more body fat overall.

What matters far more is your total energy balance over the day and week.

And there can actually be downsides to forcing fasted cardio:

→ Your training intensity may suffer
→ Your overall performance and output can drop
→ Recovery may be compromised
→ Prolonged or excessive fasted training may increase the risk of muscle breakdown

When calories and overall activity are matched, fasted cardio hasn’t been shown to provide a meaningful fat-loss advantage over fed cardio.

Does that mean fasted cardio is BAD? No.

If you enjoy training first thing in the morning, don’t feel like eating beforehand and perform well fasted, go for it.

But you don’t need to wake up starving and drag yourself through cardio because you think it’s some secret fat-burning hack.

The best cardio for fat loss is the cardio you can perform well, recover from and consistently fit into a well-structured fat-loss plan.

Stop chasing tiny “hacks” and start focusing on the things that actually move the needle. 📈

Here’s your reminder to actually check in with your coach this week âŹ‡ïž

Your coach’s job is to guide you, keep you accountable and make adjustments when needed.

But they can only coach what you communicate.

If you’re struggling with hunger, motivation, training, digestion, your routine, social events or simply feel like something isn’t working
 tell them.

Your check-in isn’t just about ticking a box or sending your weight and photos.

It’s your opportunity to communicate what’s going well, what isn’t, where you need support and what might need to change.

Your coach can’t read your mind đŸ« 

Good coaching is a two-way relationship.

The more honest and detailed you are in your check-ins, the better your coach can actually coach you. đŸ€
