#141 - 10 lessons from 100 days of fun food fat loss — with Rhyland Qually

100 days ago, I started a challenge.Every single day, I ate some form of fun food while trying to lose body fat.Cookies.Chocolate bars.Pizza.Burgers.Ice cream.Crispers.And yes... even more cookies.Now the challenge is over.In this episode, I review my final body weight, body fat percentage, DEXA scan results, and we assess how my training impacted my results.I also break down some of the biggest mistakes I made along the way and the lessons I learned from the entire experience.Some of these lessons are things you've probably heard me talk about before.Others completely surprised me.And what might surprise you most is how many of the mistakes I made are probably the same mistakes you're making right now.Throughout the episode, I explain how each of these lessons can be applied to your own fat loss journey.Because the truth is, despite coaching this stuff for a living, I still screw it up sometimes too.Perhaps the biggest surprise of all:After 100 days of eating fun food every day, I don't actually think most people should eat fun food every day. Not for the reasons you might think.I explain why in the episode.I also break down the 10 biggest lessons I took away from the challenge and how they can help you build a nutrition and training plan that allows you to enjoy the foods you love while still making progress.And just as importantly, how to keep the weight off after the fat loss phase is over.The 10 lessons I cover:• Meal Plans Kick Ass• Diet Pop Is Fing Awesome• How To Fit In Your Fiber• Finding The Right Size Treat• Pre-Workout Meals Work More Than I Realized• Own The Fat Loss Challenge• Tighten Up The Calories And Do It Sooner• Machines Are Fing Awesome - But not the whole picture• You Should NOT Eat Fun Food Every Day Like I Did• Plan For After The Weight Loss — With AccountabilityIf you're someone who wants to find a balance between enjoying fun foods, improving your health, losing body fat, and keeping the weight off long-term, I think you'll get a lot out of this one.
