🟣 Stressful Scottish Treats
🏴😱🏴😱🏴😱🏴😱🏴😱
Hello there you scrumptious little treacle tart!
So I met up with an old client over the weekend.
She travelled down to London from the bonnie lands of Scotland.
And she didn’t come empty handed 👀.
She rocked up with a goodie bag of Scottish delicacies!
No Haggis mind you (thank fuck for that).
But she had tablet and Irn-bru.
Now, if you’re reading that thinking she gave me an electronic device and some sort of Scottish metal then allow me to explain.
Tablet is a buttery, sugary, melt-in-your-mouth slice of heaven similar to fudge.
Which is why it’s on your Dentists most wanted list.
Irn-Bru is the national soft drink of Scotland (fun fact: Irn Bru is the only drink that outsells Coca Cola).
In short: she brought me sugar.
And it got me thinking about how the old tupperware sado Rachel would have reacted to this…
OFF PLAN SWEET TREATS?
AS A FUCKING GIFT?
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?
This would have put me slap bang between a nipple clamping and using a lego dildo.
On the one hand you’ve got the calories, the ruined progress, the weight gain!
But I can’t be rude and refuse the gift.
So my frazzled little calorie obsessed brain would have gone haywire.
And I’d have probably shat my knickers and thrown myself in the River Thames.
I’ve already shown you the real issue here.
And it ain’t the fucking tablet or the Irn-Bru.
But let me break this down for you my precious little pineapple…
The real issue in these situations isn’t the food, the calories or the potential weight gain.
It's launching yourself arse first into a cluster fuck, doom spiral of panick and anxiety.
Let me tell you a few facts about food that have fuck all to do with calories or bodyweight.
💜 Food is social.
💜 Food is cultural.
💜 Food is joy and connection and celebration.
Learning to navigate these moments without falling apart is E-fucking-SSENTIAL for real, sustainable progress.
Because your life will ALWAYS have tablet and Irn-Bru moments.
And what separates those who make lasting changes from those who stay stuck is how you react in these moments.
We’ve been taking our current BYB Members through how to do this and it’s been fucking orgasmic seeing lightbulbs going off across all 300+ of them.
We’ll be opening the doors for our next intake at the end of this month.
Every time we open the doors shit gets a little wild.
I’m talking 200+ spaces getting snatched up in under an hour kinda crazy.
But the April BYB is like Charlie Sheen having a stag do in Ibiza kinda crazy.
Spaces go live in 2 weeks.
48 hours early access and early bird spots on Monday the 21st.
Then, if there are spots left, general launch Thursday the 24th.
Consider this your first little nudge from my tooshie to yours.
Speak soon.
Big love,
Rachel 🥰
