If you're in this community, you play football and you want to lose fat.
Since we're near enough to Christmas and I just came back from my Holidays,
I decided that I won't eat anything for two days leading up to Christmas to "stack calories".
This is stupid, consistency beats these one off bursts of "motivation",
At the same time, not eating and saving calories to REALLY enjoy Christmas is kinda smart.
Today, I went to the gym, after the gym I get a coffee with a friend, skim milk latte, low calories.
I could've gotten an Americano ( 0 calories ), but black coffee is disgusting.
Later on, I had some stuff to do, and after that I did a football session with another friend,
Sprints, 1v1's, Dribbling, a very good session indeed. We were near enough to my house, so I decided to invite my friend over for breakfast, I think that "breaking bread" with your friends is one of the most important things that you can do to build strong relationships.
I could've been a robot, and made him breakfast and not eaten anything myself.
Maybe, I'm too weak mentally, and my "why" isn't big or strong enough,
Maybe, I used inviting my friend over for breakfast as an excuse to eat something.
Maybe, I should punish myself for eating today and not "sticking" to the plan.
The truth is, you do not lose fat in a day, and you do not gain fat in a day.
Both of these things take time.
If you don't have a six pack, I promise you, you can run 25 marathons today and you will look exactly the same. Your physique is a reflection of your nutrition and your habits.
Having some scrambled eggs on toast & a bowl of Weetabix with fruit won't DESTROY your progress.
Please don't use Christmas and the holidays to be lazy and fat.
Count your calories,
Enjoy your food,
Create memories with the people you love and care about.
