Your health journey isn’t about punishment, restriction, or trying to be more disciplined.

It’s about learning.

Just like learning to drive, starting a new job, learning a another language, or picking up a new hobby, there’s an adjustment phase where everything feels awkward and hard.

Weeks 1–4 are usually the toughest.

Your body is adapting.

Your hunger signals are loud.

Your brain is building new habits.

Most people quit in Stage 1.

They don’t quit because they’re failing, but because their body hasn’t caught up with their effort yet and they can’t see the results.

But if you stay consistent long enough your body will catch up with your effort.

If it feels hard, you’re on schedule.

Real progress happens when you stop chasing perfection and start building consistency.

Here’s something to reflect on:
Where are you sitting right now in your health journey?
And instead of asking “why is this so hard?”, try asking
“What’s one small thing I can stay consistent with this week?”

If you’d like support navigating your own journey, my nutrition consults help take the guesswork out and give you clear, personalised next steps.

Body composition changes don’t show up in a single scan.

Scan frequency isn’t about obsession. It’s about feedback, course correction, and confidence.

Different goals need different timeframes.

Older adults, women in perimenopause or menopause, or those at risk of sarcopenia benefit from scanning around every three months.

People in a calorie deficit or using weight loss medication usually need monthly scans.

Body recomposition or building muscle works best with scans every six to eight weeks.

One scan = starting point.
Two scans = show movement.
Three scans = suggest a trend.
Four to six scans = confirm what’s actually happening.

This is how you get clarity. This is how you stay consistent. This is how you intervene early instead of reacting late. You do not want to be losing muscle.

We scan for trends, not single numbers, so nutrition, training, recovery, stress, and sleep can be adjusted while change is still manageable.

This data works best when used alongside other allied health professionals. Nutrition practitioners, trainers, doctors, physiotherapists, and exercise physiologists can all use this information to guide decisions together in support of your overall health and wellbeing.

Regular scans are an investment in your health.

They remove guesswork and build confidence over time.

If you want to track progress properly, book in for a scan at SA Body Analysis & Nutrition which includes detailed scan interpretation, and establishing clear priorities & goals based on the results. All scans are interpreted by a qualified analyst and nationally registered nutritionist, so you’re not just handed data, you’re given context and direction.

GLP-1s can absolutely help with fat loss.

But without sustainable nutrition, movement, and mindset alongside them, people risk losing muscle, slowing metabolism, and ending up back where they started.

This is why body composition data matters.

Fat loss is the goal. Muscle loss is not.

Losing body fat improves health and reduces disease risk.

Muscle is what keeps people strong, resilient, and functioning well as they age.

Medication can support lifespan.

Healthspan is built through lifestyle change and proper support. 🫶🏼

If you’re using weight loss medication and want to protect muscle and long-term health, book a body composition scan or nutrition consult at Saba & I can help support you with your health journey.

Lemon water isn’t burning fat or building health.

It’s flavoured water.

If it helps you hydrate, keep it.

If you think it’s driving fat loss, detox, or hormone balance, that’s the myth.

Want real results without the wellness nonsense?

Book a nutrition consult.

MILK SUGAR MYTH — BUSTED

Let’s clear this one up.

Light milk does not have sugar added to it.

The sugar in milk is lactose, a naturally occurring carbohydrate, and it remains very similar whether the milk is full cream or light.

When fat is removed, people often see small differences on nutrition labels and assume sugar has been added.

It hasn’t. Fat went down. Sugar didn’t suddenly appear.

Milk choice shouldn’t be driven by fear.

Choose based on taste, fullness, lifestyle, and what actually works for you.

Before anyone jumps in, yes, some labels show tiny differences. That’s normal milk variability, not added sugar. Context matters more than decimals.

Confused by nutrition noise and mixed messages?

Book a nutrition consult if you would like clarity.

Small shifts in your environment can quietly guide your choices.

Using a smaller plate helps the brain register fullness sooner.

Keeping snacks portioned allows flexibility without overeating.

Placing supportive foods at the front increases how often they’re chosen.

Making water easy to reach supports appetite regulation throughout the day.

None of this is extreme.
None of it requires perfect discipline.

It’s about setting up your environment so the healthier choice becomes the easier choice.

At the start of a new year, diet culture ramps up. Loud promises, extreme rules, short timelines, and the idea that you need to overhaul everything to get “healthy”.

That approach focuses on control. It tells you what to eat, what to avoid, and how long it should take. It creates pressure and often disconnects people from their own hunger, satisfaction, and judgement. When life inevitably gets in the way, the plan falls apart and confidence goes with it.

Lifestyle change works differently. It’s slower, less flashy, and far more effective. It’s about building awareness, creating structure that fits your actual life, and allowing flexibility without guilt. The mindset shifts from “doing it perfectly” to “doing it consistently”.

Health isn’t built in 21 days.

It’s built through habits you can repeat when life is busy, social, and imperfect.

That’s why this conversation matters right now.

If you want support building habits that actually last, that’s the work I do.

In silly season with all the social events and Christmas, eating & alcohol consumption doesn’t always go according to plan.

For many people, over-indulgence leads to guilt, self-criticism, and the feeling that they are a failure or have undone their progress. That’s often where spiralling starts, and progress slips further.

This client experienced the same thing. Eating more than planned. Disrupted routines. Imperfect weeks.

The difference wasn’t the food. It was the response.

Instead of criticising herself, she acknowledged it, adjusted, and kept going. No punishment. No quitting. Just a calm, consistent response.

That’s where progress is actually won or lost.

Consistency over perfection.

Calm response over self-criticism.

Progress only stops when you stop responding.

Poor sleep ramps up cravings and fatigue while quietly sabotaging fat loss and muscle recovery.

Add hormonal changes, like menopause-related night sweats, and deep sleep can feel almost impossible.

Prioritising rest helps steady hormones, improve energy, and actually allows your body to lose fat and build muscle.

No matter your age or stage.

If your meals don’t keep you full, it’s rarely about calories, it’s about balance.

Protein, fibre, and complex carbs slow digestion, stabilise blood sugar, and curb cravings.

Once your plate hits all four, everything feels easier including your energy, focus, and appetite.

15/12/2025

Your gut affects everything from your mood to metabolism.

One familiar example is during perimenopause & menopause, hormonal changes can slow digestion and alter your gut bacteria, which leads to bloating, fatigue, and cravings!

However, no matter what your stage of life, supporting your gut helps to balance your hormones, boost energy, and improve wellbeing.

To improve gut health focus on vegetable variety and fibre intake.

If you are starting from a low fibre intake, increase your intake slowly, or you could end up feeling even more uncomfortable.

In time, try to aim for 30 or more different plant foods each week, including fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Add fermented foods such as yoghurt, kefir, kimchi, or sauerkraut a few times per week.

And, please don’t forget, as you increase your fibre intake, also increase your fluid intake to keep your digestion moving smoothly.

I hope this helps 🫶🏼
