Thank You
Hi Mark, I hope I’m not too late to add my Feedback. Now grab a cuppa and take a seat…. So, I joined this Free challenge on August 18th, and my wife decided to do it too… When we researched and read all the free information you and the group were giving, we decided to start the Clean 10 Challenge… The first 3 / 4 days were really tough but then the results really started to show, and we both started feeling better, losing weight, and burning Fat… Life was good and we felt great…. But then life has a way of getting in the way and we both waivered in late September and first half of October and during this time I stopped reviewing and interacting with the group. We undid some of the good work we had done…. Mid-October my wife and I agreed we much preferred how we felt during the challenge and as you say Mark, consistency over perfection… these words stick with me and continue to do so…. So, from Mid-October my wife and I have been being consistent and sticking to the main principles you thought us. We both work off the calorie deficit and calorie banking system. This has worked really well for us. My wife started off 11st 8 and is now 10st 7 and her target is 10st, even though I think she looks amazing now… For me, I spent the last 5 weeks building new and better habits and I can truly say I feel so much better. I havent had a drink in 4 weeks and whilst I don’t intend to give it up altogether, I don’t intend to go back to the level I was at before. I mentioned before that I signed up to a Local PT here in Dundalk. And I swear he is the Irish version of you 😊. Everything he says echoes what you told us; Protein, Habits, Consistency, Weights, Fat Loss etc. He said he has heard of you and loves your work…. The weight is still coming off me slowly; however, I notice it in the inches. My strength has increased. And my stamina and recovery rates are through the roof…. I used to use my shift work as an excuse to not train but now I’m on shift and still manage to train at least 3 to 4 times a week and have a manageable diet also.
Are you still using this group / following the program?
I just want to check the numbers, as we will be wrapping up this group soon. It's been highly rewarding helping many people and getting to know you all through this community. I would have liked to see a few more people commit; however, the problem with free stuff is that people don't always follow through. If there are only a few responses, we will bring the date forward, as there are platform fees. As of today, we won't allow any new members to join, just so we can come to a natural end. If you are looking for further support and a continuation plan, please comment 'LEARN MORE' below

60 days… 10.1 kg… 6cm
Commenced this journey weighing 126.3 kg and measured 121cm around the waist… At day 60 …. Weight: 116.1kg and waist: 115cm Loving my rekindled interest in cooking and my healthy lifestyle…. To continue my progress I have signed up to the challenger program at my local gym….their outlook is similar to Marks…over 6 weeks they will cover the following: 1. Habits beat Motivation 2. Embrace Imperfection 3. Systemise your nutrition 4. Systemise your training 5. Deliberate Practice 6. Seek Discomfort There is between 3 & 4 gym sessions a week which includes Strength training; breath-work; HIT; mobility; bootcamps as well as ice-bath & sauna time… They provide an online community, accountability quizzes as well as face to face workshops covering the above. @Mark Bryce you provided me with the most brilliant of starts to the beginning of the rest of my life…. you provided for free a well structured, highly informative and very effective healthy lifestyle program that works amazingly well….for this I will be forever grateful… When, at the end of the year our lovely community will be no more… I know that I will really miss these beautiful people who have become part of my journey , who’ve provided support, camaraderie and inspiration…. But…. we still have a little way to go before that happens… so for tonight I thought I’d provide a photo of my simple egg & chicken patty slides with spinach, tomato, and mustard..

@Cathy Curnow that is unbelievable and also believable as you put the work and commitment in... no going back now... love this
I'm excited to officially launch the new SpendWell App!
The bank account diet now has an app!! Effectively, the nutrition scorecard can now be replaced with this all-in-one tool. Here you will be able to add food with ease and track your calories against your weekly and monthly budget. As this tool is brand new, there is likely to be bugs. I already spotted one. When you log your first meal, you have to refresh the page to see the dashboard update. From that point onwards, it works perfectly. I would love to get your feedback, if you notice any bugs or any features you would like to see adding, please drop them below in this thread. I will be testing this with a wider audience before looking to get it officially on the appstore. Hopefully, this will make life easier for you when tracking food and adopting the bank account diet mindset LINK TO THE APP: https://spendwell-985129251713.us-west1.run.app

@Mark Bryce just started this today. Looks good so far. I'll send feedback after a few weeks 👍
Overdue Update
Hi All, Sorry for the lack of updates and interaction on my behalf. So here is my update following the last 1 month. So 4 weeks ago I went on my annual race trip with the lads. And let's just say all Clean rules went out the window. Beers, takeaways, meals, no exercise were the order of the day... and at the time I enjoyed it TBH... Then the following week (3 weeks ago) I felt like crap... and got it very difficult to get back into the swing of the good habits I formed and the old bad habits kicked in again. 2 weeks ago I was turning 50. I had a huge 50th (i like to celebrate these things) with 100 guests and it was brilliant... but it lasted a few days... and again the bad habits took over. 10 days ago, I had just had enough... I started again. A reset. And now I feel sooo much better. Signed up to a Local Personal Trainer. Back on the good habits... and how I know it feels different this time is... I went out for a night with the lads on Saturday but took it easy. Still enjoyed my night. Had used Marks Banking system so planned it right.... and then the following morning went to Gym and did a very difficult 1 hour kettle bell class and felt great afterwards. So guys to close.... For me the principles and habits that @Mark Bryce has given us in this group are invaluable. Mark has always said its Progress over Perfection. And to use a Rocky Quote... its not about how many times u get hit, its about getting back up again and keep going (something like that) I plan to do dry November and first week of December but even after that, I never want thosebad habits to come back, but remember that if they do, we know how to reset.
