For one person progress could be turning down cake in the office at work to stay on track.
For someone else progress could be saying yes to that same cake and tracking it as a part of their daily kcals and not self sabotaging after, writing the day off because an unplanned slice of cake.
For someone else it could be turning up to training even though they’ve just had a massive internal argument how they are tired and “deserve a rest”
Progress should not ALL measured in terms of fat loss and fitness
and if it is, your setting yourself up for failure and hardship.
Look to change your mindset and focus on mental progress too.
When you start to have daily wins such and turning down cake or not having a few beers after work (saving it for Sat)
this is going to carry over the the physical goals your looking to achieve.
Dropping clothes sizes.
Shrinking the belly.
Getting fitter and stronger.
Feeling happier.
If you don’t focus on the MENTAL side of progress the PHYSICAL side of progress will massively suffer.
Trust me, I’ve done this for a long time!
