#121 - Why you should look at weight loss over weeks/months not days/weeks with Craig McDonald
Weight can fluctuate day to day even if you are 100% consistent with your food and training. So, Craig and I thought it was a good idea to jump on and go over why it’s important to measure weight loss over weeks and months, not days.
Once you get rid of that obsession with the scale and look at it as another data point, you get so much more freedom and actually start getting the results you want. In this episode, Craig and I discuss:
➡️Why weight fluctuates day to day even if you're 100% consistent with your nutrition, training and movement
➡️How weight changes throughout your cycle
➡️How stress impacts the scale
➡️What sustainable weight loss actually is
➡️Why body measurements matter not just scale weight
➡️Why starving yourself isn’t the answer to losing body fat
➡️Why you should be looking at your weight loss over weeks/months not days/weeks
➡️Why it's important to weigh daily under the same conditions and average that number at the end of the week
