Your health and wellness habits don’t have to be confusing and complicated…

Then just make up the rest of your calories from fats and carbs, in whatever ratio suits you.

Remember, your body is your best guru. If your wee is dark yellow, itโs probably telling you that you need to drink more. If it is very clear, then youโre probably good.
๐๐ก๐๐ซ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฐ๐จ๐ซ๐ค๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ – the best time is when you can fit it into your lifestyle and be consistent with it.
Whether itโs first thing in the morning, last thing at night, or in your lunch breakโฆjust get it done.
๐๐ก๐๐ซ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฐ๐๐๐ซ – just pick a nice vegan blend that you like, with natural ingredients and no funky additives.
It all comes down to personal preference with taste and texture.

The main ones to be mindful of though are B12, iodine, omega 3, D3, ironโฆ

Calculate your TDEE, work out a 20% deficit, and then keep adjusting accordingly through trial and error.

For many, jumping from 2000-3000 steps to 10,000 is unrealistic and demotivating.
Just calculate your daily average over 7 days and then build up gradually from there.

Eat what you want. Aim for mostly whole foods. Loads of fruit and veg. Loads of vibrant colours. Aim for at least 30 different varieties of whole foods each week.

It does not fire up your metabolism by eating 6 meals per day, as opposed to one!
For practical reasons, I wouldnโt recommend eating all your 1800 calories and 90g of protein in one meal. So just break up your target protein and calories however it suits you.
