Rewrite the Recipe - Client FAQs
Q: What if I mess up or fall off the plan?
A: You will — we all do. The difference is: you don’t need rescuing, you need a system. This program builds resilience, not dependency. When you fall off, you get back on. No 'starting over Monday,' no guilt spirals. One bad meal isn’t the problem — the story you tell yourself afterwards is. This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being disciplined enough to keep going when you’re not.
Q: Do I need to exercise to see results?
A: No — but it will accelerate your progress and make you feel better, faster. This isn’t about burning calories to 'earn' food. It’s about building strength, improving insulin sensitivity, and becoming more metabolically flexible. I’ll help you tailor movement to your goals, fitness level, and weekly routine — whether that’s walking, resistance training, boxing, or just getting your steps up. You don’t have to live in the gym — but you do have to move.
Q: What kind of exercise works best with this nutrition plan?
A: Low-carb living changes how your body fuels itself. That means some types of training work better than others depending on your current adaptation. I’ll guide you through which sessions to prioritise, when to train fasted, how to refuel, and how to avoid burnout. Think: smart resistance training, walking, strategic cardio — not punishing HIIT every day. Movement should be a tool for energy and confidence — not a punishment for what you ate.
Q: Is this keto? Low-carb? What exactly do I have to eat?
A: This isn’t a rigid 'keto' plan or a one-size-fits-all diet. I’ll help you shift toward a low-carb, real-food way of eating that fits your lifestyle and your preferences. Some people go full keto — others stay more flexible. We build the plan around you.
Q: Do I have to count calories or track everything I eat?
A: No. The goal is metabolic freedom — not obsession. We focus on sustainable habits, food quality, and meal timing. I’ll teach you how to listen to your hunger and energy cues instead of numbers on a screen.
Q: How much weight will I lose?
A: Everyone is different — but if you stay consistent, many clients lose 1–2lbs per week while improving energy, focus, and sleep. More importantly, they gain control over cravings and stop yo-yo dieting.
Q: Can I do this if I have a family or social life?
A: 100%. I’ll show you how to make this work in the real world — dinners out, weekends away, and yes… even chocolate. This is about sustainable progress, not perfection.
Q: Do you offer meal plans?
A: Yes — I’ll build a new meal plan for you each week based on your preferences, goals, and how the last week went. You’ll never be stuck wondering what to eat.
Q: What should I expect to feel in the first week?
A: The first week is the hardest — and that’s normal. You’ll likely feel hungrier than usual, especially for sugary snacks and drinks. That’s not weakness — it’s your metabolism shifting gears. Cravings, low energy, and a short fuse are all signs your body is adjusting. Stick with it. By Week 2, most people report more energy, fewer cravings, and better mental clarity.
Q: What do most people struggle with when they start?
A: Meal planning and social pressure. Choosing what to eat when you're out with friends — or just figuring out what to make at home — can feel overwhelming at first. That’s why we build the structure together. You’ll get weekly plans, guidance when you need it, and support to stay on track when others might tempt you to quit.
Q: Can I still eat out or order takeaway?
A: Absolutely — this is real life, not food prison. You can enjoy meals out, takeaways, and weekends away as long as they fit the plan. I’ll help you navigate menus, swap ingredients, and still enjoy the moment without undoing your progress.
Q: What kind of results should I expect in the first few weeks?
A: Most clients feel noticeably better by Week 2. Cravings drop, energy increases, sleep improves, and focus gets sharper. The scale often shifts too — but more importantly, you’ll feel more in control of what you eat and why.
Q: Is this super restrictive? What if I like to enjoy food?
A: You can absolutely enjoy food — even the finer things — without packing on the pounds. This plan is about eating better, not less. You’ll be surprised how much satisfaction you can get from real, whole food once your body isn’t being hijacked by sugar crashes and processed junk.
Q: Do I have to give up alcohol or treats forever?
A: No. This isn’t about punishment or perfection. It’s about control and awareness. You can enjoy a drink, chocolate, or a takeaway — the key is learning how to do it without derailing your goals. That’s exactly what I’ll coach you through.
