The Fit and Hungry Girls (2026)

It’s Monday morning, you bound out of bed ‘I can’t wait to go to the gym today!!!’ you think to yourself and you continue with this level of enthusiasm everyday for the rest of the year. Sound fake? It is.

If you’re thinking that you’re going to one day wake up and ALWAYS feel excited about going to the gym- I’m here to tell you that the day ain’t coming.

Going to the gym consistently, cooking your meals, getting your steps in all comes from relying on habits built over time, not motivation.

Think about your job. For the most part, people do the job that they do because they love it and/or you get paid. Do you want to go to work every day? Probably not but the pros of going outweigh the cons of not. Plain and simple, if you don’t go, you don’t get paid and you don’t get to live the life you want to live.

Same goes for the gym, if you value your health and have a certain physique goal you want to achieve, then going to the gym, cooking your meals & getting your steps in is a non-negotiable.

Creating a habit doesn’t happen overnight. Habits are created when you do things over and over again even when you don’t want to do them. I would even go as far to say that when you don’t want to go thats when you need it the most.

And if you’re leaving it up to motivation to fuel the need to do anything then you’re already setting yourself up for failure. You will do it for a few weeks and give up once your “motivation” has died off and no weight has come off.

Short term motivation is just that, short term.

So rely on habits to get you to where you want to be and stop waiting for that day where you bound out of bed hopped up on daily motivation and excitement. Because it’s never gonna happen!!💜

Let’s talk about a really common scenario clients approach us with ⬇️

They’re ’barely eating’ during the day, exercising A LOT & yet seeing no results.

It’s crazy how often we see this!

Our advice in fixing this always feels a little counterintuitive but hear us out….we actually need to pull back on the frequency of our workouts and eat more of the right things, consistently.

Often we find women are under eating only to end up over eating in the afternoons/evenings or on weekends. They’re also doing far too much activity without any real intention behind the type of exercise they’re doing.

Both of these things leave us feeling depleted and no closer to our goals.

To put our metabolisms and bodies in the best position possible, we want to increase our protein intake, increase our rest days, increase our meal frequency & improve the quality of our training.

You actually will not believe the difference in your energy levels and body composition when you stop trying to over exercise and under eat!

Don’t get us wrong our clients work hard but they also work smart! So stop burning the candle at both ends and getting no where. Your body and mind will thank you for the rest and reward you for it 🫶

✨humpday mood ✨

Nothing good comes from being comfortable. Comfortable is where dreams go to die.

No one finds it easy trying something new. Putting yourself out there. Going after something you really want. We are all scared of failing and rejection. But truly, nothing scares me more than not trying.

Before you get comfortable in your routine, ask yourself- is this the dream? If it isn’t, do something about it. You may fail but hey, you may also succeed 😉

Let’s talk intermittent fasting. (PLS everyone take a second to read this- it’s important xx)

The primary reason behind losing weight by intermittent fasting is purely CALORIE RESTRICTION—by limiting the time available for eating, people tend to consume fewer calories over their day.

The key to being successful in weight loss is creating a calorie deficit!!! Calories are king.

This can be achieved through various different diets and methods. It’s important to find an approach that suits YOUR lifestyle, preferences, and overall health goals because it’s not one size fits all!

Some people may find intermittent fasting to be an effective strategy and find it easy to skip breakfast- while others may prefer to spread out their calories evenly throughout the day in order to enjoy a meal in the morning. (Let’s be serious, most people are lying to themselves about loving skipping breakfast- it’s a mentality built over time that allows them to think skipping a meal will make them skinnier)

Ultimately, weight loss is influenced by factors such as your activity levels, overall diet quality, and adherence to a consistent calorie deficit and then it’s the habits and routines you built over time that allow you to sustain these results.

It’s important to focus on overall healthy eating habits, regular physical activity, and finding an approach that works for you in the long term rather than relying solely on intermittent fasting as the only solution for weight loss because let’s be serious- you aren’t going to not eat breakfast for the rest of your life and you will most likely not learn anything by just skipping meals.

All of these methods such as fasting, keto, carnivore etc- all do one thing: calorie restriction. You are not losing weight because you don’t eat for x amount of time.

You are not losing weight because carbs are the enemy. You are not losing weight because protein has magical powers. You are losing weight by cutting calories in some way, shape or form.

Discipline > Motivation

Discipline over motivation applies not just to training but also to nutrition. Motivation might get you to meal prep for a week, but discipline keeps you consistent when cravings hit or life gets busy.

At the gym, discipline means showing up even when you don’t feel like it. With food, it means making smart choices even when takeout is tempting. It’s about having a plan, sticking to habits, and remembering your long-term goals.

Motivation fades, but discipline builds results. Create routines, remove decision fatigue, and trust that small, consistent actions lead to big changes.

We know that starting a health and fitness journey can be a bit daunting.

You’re constantly thinking… am I doing the right thing? Should I be eating more protein? Is this too many carbs? SOS??

That’s why having a coach is so invaluable… because it’s like having an inbuilt support system, someone to guide you, someone who has been where you are and gets it.

We love showing clients things don’t have to be so overwhelming & that they CAN do scary new things.

With the right plan, accountability and someone to support you through those more challenging days, things won’t feel so overwhelming.

So if you’re thinking yeah I do need someone to help carry the mental load and take the guess workout out of my goals, hit the link in our bio and start your journey now ❤️

3 things I wish I knew before starting my fitness & health journey:

•Training 3/4 days is better than 6/7

I always thought training 6/7 days a week was better because, well, it was MORE. More is not always better; in fact, 3/4 solid days with intensity has done far more for my body than 7 days a week ever did. Your body needs REST. The amount of imposed stress I was causing was not helpful in reaching my goals. I also thought that if I didn’t work out that day, I would gain weight and guess what happened when I stopped? Nothing. I didn’t gain weight. I got rest. I allowed my muscles to recover. And I trained even better the next sesh.

•A calorie deficit is why ALL diets work

I also believed that specific diets had magical fat loss properties, which they, of course, DO NOT.

If you want to do keto, do keto.
If you want to go vegan, go vegan.
If you want to count macros, count macros.

However, understand if fat loss is your goal, than any diet will work as long as it creates a calorie freaking deficit.

•that food is just- food. There are no “good” or “bad” foods. Just some that are more nutrient dense than others.

I demonized food. I thought pizza would make me gain weight and chicken and broccoli would make me lose it. I believed far too much BS information the internet & people told me. The moment I realized that all food is just food, just some bring more nutrients than others- I stopped feeling guilty for my daily piece of chocolate or treat. The freedom I get from macros is why I love it so much. It gives me the flexibility to eat 80% whole & nutrient dense foods and 20% from whatever the heck I want. 🖤🖤
