    Episode 167: How to deal with hunger during a calorie deficit and make weight loss progress you can maintain.

    This week's episode came straight from a question one of my Thrive clients asked in our group - and I knew so many of you would relate to it so I wanted to expand on my advice to her on the podcast. She's been tracking calories, staying in a deficit, but recently she's been feeling constantly hungry, low energy and a bit rubbish. Sound familiar? In this episode I'm talking about why hunger in a deficit is normal - but misery isn't, how what you eat can transform how full you feel without eating more calories, why your menstrual cycle affects your hunger more than you might realise, what a diet break actually is and why planning one can help you get better results in the long run, and what to do after your event or holiday so you don't lose all the progress you've worked so hard for. This one is for anyone who has ever felt like they're either fully on a diet or completely off it - and wants a smarter, more sustainable way to approach fat loss for good. 🎥 Mentioned in this episode:If this resonated with you, you might also want to watch this video on my YouTube channel - 'I thought weight loss would make me happy and I was wrong': 🌿 Want to work with me?Thrive Spring intake is currently open until the end of May.

    Episode 165: How to lose weight whilst still living your life and enjoy social occasions.

    This week I'm talking about how you can be in a calorie deficit and make progress whilst still enjoying social occasions and living your life ... BUT there are things that you need to take into consideration. I talk about compromises and sacrifices you may have to make, and prompt you to think about whether it's worth it and whether considering these things can help you manage your expectations in terms of how much fat loss you want to see. I'd love to know what you think about this episode and let me know if you have any questions after listening!

    Episode 162: Why your weekly self-care habits matter more than perfect workouts and nutrition.

    In this episode, I’m talking about why self-care habits matter just as much as workouts and nutrition when it comes to feeling good and staying consistent. Because so many busy women try to do everything perfectly with their fitness and food, but overlook the small, simple habits that actually help them stay on track when life gets full. I share why consistency isn’t about doing more, but about building a way of taking care of yourself that fits your real life...and how that shift can make everything feel easier and more sustainable. This is exactly what I work on with my clients, and if you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of starting over, this one’s for you! You can watch my recent Instagram reel on this topic, as well as my Youtube video where I share my weekly self-care habits here: If you'd like to get in touch with me to find out more about my coaching offers, you can contact me anytime on the below: Instagram: ⁠@sc.fitness.pt⁠ Email: hello@sc-fitness.co.uk Website: ⁠www.sc-fitness.co.uk/contact⁠
