Challenges for Small Females in Fat Loss
January 24, 2025
I was about to say that the problem is, and it goes back to that post that, uh, that we put up, I think we put up last week. It was a re repost women. That's again, women have it rough because let's say if i'm again 3200 tdee and i do a 500 calorie deficit i can easily lose 400 grams a weight a week no problem if you're a small female and your tdee is 1700 and you pull that same 500 off to try to lose that same 4 450 grams a week you're eating 1100 calories you're going to be real fucking hungry and that and you're not going to be able to perform well so it's but but then if you go to a smaller deficit, it doesn't take a whole lot to wipe out your deficit. So if you reality on most people, yeah, if you have a really good, you're really good Monday through Friday and on the weekend, you kind of splurge a little bit, you could wipe your deficit out for the entire week and just a few meals over the weekend. If you're, if you're not cooking for yourself and you're ordering Uber Eats or you're ordering, you're not, you're eating a bunch of stuff out of boxes. If you look at labeling laws, they can be off by law, plus or minus 20% calories. So if you're on a 20% deficit and you're eating a lot of stuff out of boxes and not cooking it yourself, you could be, you could think you're in a 20% deficit. You're actually not in any deficit because the labels could be off. Yeah, exactly. And a lot of the time we don't even realize when we're snacking or nibbling or this, that, and the other, and you'll think that you're in a deficit because you can think of things that you just had extra. And this also goes back to the that most people aren't in a place to diet because you've been fatigued mentally from trying to do it so long. Like when it comes to dieting you need to be in a place where you can give it your 100 and you need to be able to endure it for the period of time that you doing it i have a client right now she in her first battle phase since the three years she's been with me and she went through a week of hardly any sleep down god knows where with her daughter going through hospital shit with her she cleared up with training she still stuck to her calories she was able to grind through it because she doesn't have the diet fatigue anymore that she came to me with. That is what makes results. When you're in a place where you can give it your very freaking best and you can't do that when you're staying fatigued. Can I just say that if you're going to be not dieting, you're still fatigued and chronically in the place where you're never going to get into a place to diet. If you're still thinking when's the next battle space, I can't wait to lean out. Coach, when are you going to cut my calories? You're still fatigued. But I want to go back to that part.
