"Can I live on a shake for breakfast and a shake for

lunch for the rest of my life? If the answer to that is no, then Herbalife or these kind of things, it's not for you."

"The diet before the diet, what it actually means is

you will need to ground the foundations. Like a house does not stand without foundations. The same goes for a fat loss journey or a fat loss phase. It will not work without solid foundations."

"Nail your adherence and nail your consistency before

you do the push to the real dieting phase. Otherwise, what you're going to end up doing is ending up in a yo-yo restrict binge cycle."
