The Emma Guns Show

I spoke about this over my Substack this week but, my word, the new series of And Just Like That has made me feel really scared about getting older. What happened to the dynamic, powerful women from Sex and the City - I want them back!

Also, my latest weight loss update is one I wasn't expecting. The pump from the gym feels great but after weeks of feeling leaner, it's surprising to feel swollen all of a sudden.

Oh, and some incredible beauty finds:

I've been on my travels, have had some bizarre but quite insightful messages and have been humbled by the weights room in the gym this week...

Joining a Gym, Tittle-Tattle & Wild Swimming | The Emma Guns Show

🏋🏽‍♀️ This week marks a new chapter in my body recomposition chapter. After training with my friend and coach, Emma Storey-Gordon of The EC Method fame, I decided it was time to hit 'diesel mode' and join a gym. I've achieved LOADS with dumbbells in my living room, but to really see and feel those gains, I felt it was time to get to the gym, use the machines and start lifting more with a wider selection of weights. Who's with me?!

👹 I knew discussing diet, fitness and weight loss would invite criticism and nastiness but this episode marks the last time we'll talk about it. From now on, it's block, delete and move on.

🏊🏽 I went on the most incredible trip with OSKIA last week and, among other things, went wild swimming, which was an absolute revelation.

This episode is brought to you by a migraine. If it feels all over the place, it's because I'm all over the place today thanks to a humdinger of a migraine that's left me feeling like a slightly lopsided, cloth-tongued, weepy-eyed wimp.

With that said, there are things to discuss. Such as the reaction to my weight loss, why I want to defend Jeremy Clarkson and why being slightly 'perfect' online gets more engagement. From the woman who this afternoon posted a 'fashion' reel on Instagram with smudged eye makeup and her glasses on because of aforementioned migraine.

Anyway, let me know your thoughts on all of this, whether it's on email [email protected], on Instagram @emmaguns or over on my Substack.

I need help. Apparently... | The Emma Guns Show

📝 So, this week was a gain when it came to my weigh-in but we're so close to the end and this really is the last bit to lose so I need to re-focus and get through this gain/plateau I'm on.

In other news though, my weight loss 'effort' seems to be triggering for someone...

We simply must talk about And Just Like That... and where I think The Real Housewives franchises could do a wee bit better...

The Best Bit about Goal-Setting... | The Emma Guns Show

📝 Will it be an anticlimax when I hit my goal weight? I had to ask myself this when I realised I was back at my Weight Watchers goal weight from 2010. Will it feel different this time around knowing that my weight won't immediately start to creep up again and because the journey has been far more than weight loss and more about personal discovery and feeling good?

📰 Though it might seem like I'm being unhelpful, this is why I never tell people what weights I'm using when I work out...

I Can’t Believe I’m Telling You This… | The Emma Guns Show

📝 First of all, a huge THANK YOU for all the incredible feedback I received after last week’s episode. Your emails and messages are so helpful and really do help me create the podcast, so thank you to everyone who took the time. 

Let’s kick off with an update on my Weight Loss Effort and how it feels now we’re over two and a half months into consistent strength training, high protein/low fat dieting and intermittent fasting.

🌈 I have a dirty little secret about how I got my colours done, but I’m only telling you and I’m only saying it here…

📰 Finally, I’ve noticed a shift in tone in the conversation around Ozempic recently. Have you noticed it to? Is it the easy way out and is it a way to lose weight that doesn’t involve consistency, dieting and regular exercise?

👗 In this video I'm wearing:

Mango Round-Neck T-Shirt in Brown.

Ask Me Anything | Weight Loss Edition | The Emma Guns Show

Is Ozempic Cheating? | The Emma Guns Show

📝 Two months into this effort to lose body fat and gain lean muscle and progress is being made, but there have been some bumps along the way, including some accusations that I'm 'anti Ozempic' so let's discuss it.

📰 Also in this episode, intermittent fasting and some great resources on how to find out more and how to make it work for you, being banjaxed by an injury and whether you ever really know if supplements are working...

👗 In this video I'm wearing:

Prince T-Shirt from Little Lies. Not available anymore but here are some other great band tees.

I Really Messed Up! | The Emma Guns Show

📝 LI mean, I didn't really but it'd be easy to look at the change in my weight and assume I had, right? Instead, this challenge is proving to me what makes me feel good and also giving me a 'normal' to come back to so I never spiral into over-eating and unhelpful/unhealthy food habits again...

👗 In this video I'm wearing:

An old The Kooples blouse that's no longer available unfortunately.
