🍌 Ah, you think I’ve lured you here to chat about banana ripeness…

…and yep — I kind of have, although this is good information.. BUT what I actually want to chat about is what’s in our food — because that’s just as important.

These days, most of us are becoming a bit label-curious.
If an ingredient sounds like it belongs in a lab, we’re suspicious.
But here’s something that might surprise you…

Take a banana (yep, just a humble, innocent banana). 🍌
If you broke down its components, you’d find:

🧪 2-methylbutyl ethanoate
🧪 Palmitoleic acid
🧪 E101 — aka vitamin B2 (which can turn your wee yellow, by the way 😅)

Sounds like a chemistry set, doesn’t it? But it’s 100% natural — straight from Mother Nature herself.

Now think about our 1:1 Diet products — the shakes, soups, bars and meals designed to support you on Plan.
If you glance at the back of the packet, it might look like a long list of fancy-sounding ingredients.

But here’s the truth:

✅ Those names are mostly vitamins, minerals and nutrients your body needs
✅ Colours often come from fruit and veg like beetroot and berries
✅ Thickeners are made from plant-based fibres
✅ And we include things like healthy fats and prebiotics for added benefits

They’re not fillers — they’re fuel.

Without these carefully chosen ingredients, our products wouldn’t be nutritionally complete, or provide everything your body needs when following the Plan safely and effectively.

So, before we side-eye a label, let’s remember: sometimes science is sexy — especially when it helps us feel amazing ✨

Throwback Thursday with

4 stone lost in 16 weeks in 2021

"Following the premature arrival of my daughter in May 2020, my weight
spiralled out of control. I was still medicated for post-partum hypertension a
year after giving birth and was pre-diabetic. Food became my comfort during
the trauma I had experienced.

By October 2021, I knew something needed to change—not just for me, but for
my family. That’s when I found The 1:1 diet. In just 16 weeks, I achieved my goal,
and I’ve never looked back!

The mental space the plan gave me helped me address my emotional struggles,
while the support I received helped me slowly reintroduce food and learn how
to deal with my triggers without the constant binge eating.

Now, 3 years later, I’ve maintained my weight loss completely diet-free!
If I can do it, so can you."

If you start now, you’ll thank yourself later. Prioritise your health. You’ve got
this!

👣 Celebrate the Step, Not the Stumble

When babies take their first step, and then fall on their little bottoms…
We don’t focus on the fall.
We don’t say “Well that didn’t go well!”
We cheer. We clap. We beam with pride at that first, wobbly, wonderful step.

💛 Somewhere along the way, as adults, we forget to do that for ourselves.

Instead of celebrating progress, we punish the slip-ups.
Instead of being proud of the step forward, we fixate on the fall back.

Let’s change that.

✨ Applaud every healthy choice
✨ Celebrate every pound lost (or maintained!)
✨ Be proud of getting back on track — even after a rocky day

Because progress is never perfect. And the journey is made of tiny, brave steps forward — not flawless runs.

So if you’ve taken a little wobble… that’s OK. You stepped. And that’s worth celebrating 💪

💬 Common Diet Questions Answered

“Can I lose weight without exercising?”

Short answer? Yes, you absolutely can.
And I’m living proof.

I lost 7 stone – despite having very limited mobility, using a walker and wheelchair, and being on a long list of medications.

No gym.
No running.
No burpees in sight, thank goodness 😅

Just a plan that worked for me, the right support, and a whole lot of determination.
I focused on what I could do, not what I couldn’t.

💛 Some days my biggest win was sticking to Plan
💛 Some weeks were tougher than others
💛 But bit by bit… it happened
And my life has completely changed.

So if you’ve been putting off your weight loss journey because exercise feels impossible — I want you to know this:

➡️ You don’t have to move more to weigh less
➡️ You don’t need to be “fit” to get started
➡️ You’re not lazy — your body’s just been through a lot

Let’s make this work for you. I’ve been there. I get it. And I’ll support you every step of the way 🧡

🧼 Get Fit While You Clean! 🧹

Household Chores That Secretly Burn Calories 🔥

Think you’ve not done much today?
Think again!

That “just” hoovering? That mountain of laundry? That bed you made in a huff?
Turns out you’ve been working harder than you think 💪

Here’s how many calories your weekly chores could be torching:

🧽 Cleaning the house – 280 mins/week = 3976 cals
🍳 Cooking/prepping food – 302 mins/week = 2856 cals
🪣 Mopping – 138 mins/week = 2724 cals
🍽 Doing the dishes – (no escape here!) = 1932 cals
🧺 Putting away clothes – 186 mins/week = 1708 cals
👚 Laundry – 168 mins/week = 1588 cals
🧦 Ironing – 144 mins/week = 1360 cals
🛏 Making the bed – 144 mins/week = 1316 cals
🧹 Sweeping – 138 mins/week = 1304 cals
🧼 Vacuuming – 132 mins/week = 1247 cals

🔥 That’s over 18,000 calories a week — just by keeping your home ticking over!

So if anyone ever says, “You don’t exercise!”
…you can politely smile while hoisting your laundry basket and walking off like the domestic goddess you are 😘

Every bit counts. Every step matters. And yes — this does mean hoovering counts as cardio 🫶

🍽️ Common Diet Questions Answered
“Do I have to cut carbs to lose weight?”

Short answer? Nope! 🙅‍♀️
Long answer? Let’s unpack it 👇

Carbs get a bad rap in diet culture — but they’re not the villain! In fact, carbs are your body’s preferred energy source. Your brain loves them, your muscles need them, and cutting them out completely can leave you feeling tired, foggy, and downright grumpy (hello, carb rage anyone? 😅).

Yes, some people choose to go low-carb and that’s fine — but it’s not the only way to lose weight.
What actually matters?
✅ Calorie deficit (eating slightly less than your body needs)
✅ Balanced nutrition
✅ Consistency
✅ Support (hello, that’s where I come in!)

💡On The 1:1 Diet, the beauty is that your plan is tailored to you. Some Steps are lower in carbs to kickstart weight loss, and others include healthy carbs like wholegrains, veg and pulses — it depends where you’re at on your journey and what your body needs.

So no, you don’t need to ditch the carbs completely. You just need the right plan, and someone cheering you on 🙋‍♀️

🌟 5 Gut-Friendly Tips to Help Things Along Naturally:

1️⃣ Hydration is key!
Water helps fibre do its job. Not enough water = constipation city 🚱

2️⃣ Eat your fibre
Fruits, veg, chia seeds, flaxseeds – all great for keeping you regular.

3️⃣ Move your body
You don’t need to run a marathon — a 20-minute walk each day can help stimulate your digestive system 🚶‍♀️

4️⃣ Stress less
There’s a real gut-brain connection. Stress can slow everything down, including your bowels 🧘‍♀️

5️⃣ Still stuck?
Natural options like a little magnesium or prune juice can help, but always check in with your GP if symptoms persist.

⸻

🚨 If it’s been more than three days and you’re feeling uncomfortable — or if there’s a sudden change, blood, weight loss, or pain — please don’t ignore it. Always seek medical advice when something feels off ❤️

💬 And if you’re on Plan and finding things a bit “sluggish,” don’t panic! Let’s chat — we can adjust your plan, look at fibre levels, hydration, or other gentle changes to support your tummy and get you feeling your best again.

Sometimes the little things — like dry skin, sore lips, or feeling extra tired — are actually signs that we might be missing vital nutrients. Here’s what to look out for and what you can do to help 👇

💤 Tired All the Time?
You might be low in:
Iron, B12 or Folate
These help your body make red blood cells – which carry oxygen! Less oxygen = more yawning and weakness.
🧡 Try: Red meat, leafy greens, fish, beans, eggs.

💇‍♀️ Hair Thinning or Brittle Nails?
Could be a lack of:
Iron, Zinc or Biotin (B7)
These keep your hair strong, nails tough, and skin clear.
🥑 Try: Seafood, mushrooms, legumes, dairy, egg yolks.

👄 Cracked Lips or Mouth Sores?
You may be short on:
B2, B6, B12, Folate or Iron
Even a sore tongue or swollen gums can be linked to nutrient gaps!
🍋 Try: Citrus fruits, poultry, tomatoes, leafy greens, wholegrains.

🌿 Dry, Flaky Skin or Breakouts?
Could be a deficiency in:
Omega-3, Vitamin A or C
Your skin needs good fats and nutrients to stay smooth and hydrated.
🐟 Try: Oily fish, carrots, squash, red peppers, liver, and plenty of water!

🦴 Aching Bones or Stiff Joints?
This could be your body asking for:
Calcium & Vitamin D
These two are best mates when it comes to keeping bones strong.
🧀 Try: Milk, cheese, leafy greens, oily fish, egg yolks, and get outside for a bit of sunshine! ☀️

👀 Struggling to See in Dim Light?
Low levels of:
Vitamin A
can cause night blindness and dry eyes.
🥕 Try: Carrots, squash, eggs, and leafy veg for that all-important eye support.

💬 Bottom line: You don’t have to suffer in silence. If your body’s sending signals, it might be time for a little nutrition TLC 💛
And if you’re on Plan, The 1:1 Diet provides balanced nutrition — but always talk to your Consultant if anything feels off. We’re here to help you feel your best!
