You and I are going to drink a lot of coffee together. Like, borderline dangerous amounts of coffee.
So, first things first. Pour yourself a mug and I’ll introduce myself real quick.
My name’s Jordan - but everyone calls me “J” - and I’m a 27th degree black belt in chugging coffee.
I’m also strength & nutrition coach, I hold several powerlifting world records, and I’ve been fortunate enough to have my writing featured in a variety of outlets like CNN, the Huffington Post, and Schwarzenegger.com.
But listen.
This channel isn’t for fame, publicity, cash, props, fist bumps, likes, pings, pows or whatever else there is.
It’s a place where you and I can chat.
I’ll never sugar coat, lie, or beat around the bush. I’ll tell you everything exactly as I see it. Some stuff you might like. Others you might not.
And that’s totally cool.
Either way, my goal here is to create a discussion. A place where you and I can get together, exchange ideas, and motivate each other to be better every day.
Like I said, we’re gonna drink a lot of coffee together - borderline dangerous amounts - but I’m excited. Because there aren’t too many online communities in which the sole purpose is to inspire and motivate one another.
And that’s exactly what you and I are going to do here.
To your success,
-J

I've just tuned 40 and was sitting at 255 lbs. I started walking 10,000 steps a day on January 30th. I have added light weights three times a week, a kettle ball routine twice a week and I jog on the weekends. It's March 13 & my current weight is 235. I have also changed my diet to a more nutritional one usually getting in around 1600 to 1800 calories, while still enjoying my occasional craving. I also keep an eye on my macros. This can be done if you dedicate to it. Thank you so much for the videos and advice.
Well done! Commenting 4 years later & wondering how you’re doing now?
Weight doesn't go down, but measurements do = Non scale victories 🎊🎊🎉🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳🥳🥳 This happened to me for a good 10 weeks straight. The scale didn't budge, buy body changed dramatically through clean eating, resistance training, and consistency!! Patience is a virtue 🙌🏾
Hi Jordan! I’m 80lbs down today by staying in a calorie deficit. Best news-I’ve been able to eat cheese and chocolate (as well as all my nutrient dense foods)! Thank you for addressing all aspects of weight loss including (and not limited too) consistency and mental health. Thank you 1,000 times for sharing your wisdom! #sortinghatsquad
Has bunger been a reoccurring thing for you? I'm just starting but dont plan to be hungry, if i do I'll eat low calorie food that feels filling, even if its very temporary
Deathculture your body gets used to the defecit after a while and your hunger does back down, at least in my experience
“I’ve been in a calorie deficit for 72 minutes” Lolol patience is the name of the game for sure!!!
Did you not watch point 1 Lol there’s no way to tell if your in a calorie deficit so how the hell were you in a deficit for 72 minutes 🤣 why not 70 mins why 72 lol
Ersho it was just a joke. Not serious.
Ersho lol I literally repeated what he said in the video cause I thought it was funny... yikes
Dude did you get lean
I just love your approach to fat loss. I did 3 month of deficit, losing 20 pound, and started doing some maintenance for the holidays. I am proud of how much weight I loss, but I am prouder of doing it without any crazy diets, I just had to do some adjustments and do some better choices.
Thanks Jordan :)
#sortinghatsquad
How did you get a defecit?
Sexually active Toyota,
- I calculated how many calories I needed to eat (ruclips.net/video/7YwoqxaxMbQ/видео.html)
- Using “MyFitnessPal” I tracked what I ate for 2 weeks, so I could learn my habits and identify what I could remove/reduce to meet my calorie goals
- I started following my new strategy, tracking everything using “MyFitnessPal” and adjusting how I spread my calories throughout the day given how I felt
@@iPivo wow thanks alot and did you even have to workout?
Sexually active Toyota, I run 5 time a week because I enjoy doing 10ks and half-marathons
@@iPivo is it mandetory to workout or do physical activities?
I spent countless hours on educating myself on loosing weight, most of the time without successful execution. And I've never ever heard anyone say that your hunger will increase and that it's a good sign. Thank you so much :)
#sortinghatsquad
I know this won’t work for everyone but this video is so spot on it’s mind blowing. I was in a calorie deficit for probably two years and I lost my period and my sex drive but now that Im slowly increasing it’s all come back. Patience is key with everything here. I just can’t believe how spot on everything you are. I’ve learned so much from you in the past year, and have passed it on to people I have inspired on my IG so thanks! It’s science! And it’s really not that complicated✌️☀️ thank you
“If your measurements are going down but your weight is staying the same, you’re making progress.” Said no dr. ever. Thank you for the reminder! #sortinghatsquad
Don’t forget that BMI BS. IM not fat but im no ripped either but u can tell i workout with a shirt on but my weight is still considered overweight by doctors due to BMI BS
Agreed. BMI is scientific 💩
Thank you! At my leanest and healthiest I was 200 pounds (I'm 5ft) but it was muscle. Now I'm trying to focus on ability over BMI.
“Ability over BMI” should be a bumper sticker.
@@tanyamcp4121 why only bumper stickers. Should be a shirt or something. O and shirt that spells out calorie deficit
These signs are so accurate! I have lost 49 lbs so far on my journey to get healthy and your channel has been so helpful. Thank you so much Jordan! #sortinghatsquad
You're saving my life..... I'm a senior citizen and finely finding my way out of the maze..... Thanks so much !
I am 67 years old and really needed this video.
7 pounds down today! The best part is I feel good about it, and not wishing I’m weighing even less. Thank you for pushing mental health first Jordan! #sortinghatsquad
I've been learning so much from your videos. Thank you! #sortinghatsquad
Jordan,
Thank you for always putting ur content in a format that is easy to understand and is fucking hilarious and entertaining. I send all of ur videos to friends who are needing help understanding how simple it can be. The no BS approach is everything. #SortingHatSquad
A few weeks of your videos & podcasts have started to help me reverse a solid 20+ years of having a negative relationship with food/dieting. Wish I had this info in my teens/early 20s but better late than never. Thank you 🤘🏼#sortinghatsquad
You are the only one who says the truth! Thank you for your honesty❤️ we need more people like you👍🏻
Explains why I have been feeling so tired and why I've got rid of my insomnia (been sleeping like a baby!). Lost 10kg since September, but my goal this month is to just maintain, so wish me luck. #sortinghatsquad
Glad you mentioned that its normal for hunger to go up and energy to decrease. Its easy to become fearful that you're doing something "wrong" when you don't feel like a million bucks in a deficit.
You and Garyvee gave me the motivation this year to start my RUclips channel and chase my passion. There is So much miss information about fatloss, I’m glad real people are clearing shit up!
Hey Jordan, I found this REALLY useful, thank you. I've had a history of eating disorders and am trying to shape my body the "right way". So I'm not counting calories very closely because it triggers me, but these things to watch out for help me restore a sense of intuition and connection with my body. It's like, I _do_ want to lose fat and I'm definitely at a healthy weight to do so, but my body is super scared of losing any weight at all.
I've just stopped watching keto videos and loving yours instead. I just quit the keto diet after 7 months on it, lost weight, now I want to give your approach a try to see if I can keep losing without having to keep my carbs so sadly low. Happy to find your channel.
I’ve been training and learning about fitness for more than 10 years and I’m still learning from you. Thank you! #SortingHatSquad
It’s refreshing to hear someone so genuine and real. Not giving a fuck about trying to be a RUclips poster boy. Very helpful information Jordan
At the beginning of my journey, I lost 7 pounds, and then went into a month long ‘plateau’ and quit for like a month. I then went to a dietician for a keto type diet because I was convinced I was insulin resistant. Although I lost weight while I was seeing them, the most important thing I learned at the dietician was that, if I actually tracked my calories while I was keto, the weeks I never lost weight, were the weeks I was over eating and not in a deficit. Needless to say I quit the dietician and have lost 6 pounds since then while eating all the carbs.
Long story short: Calorie deficit #sortinghatsquad :)
Are you arab though
I love when you say what people in the comments are going to say...it’s amazing and I actually laugh out loud
Love this! I’ve been cold today and so tired and questioning whether what I’m doing is right because of everything I’ve read and seen before about how I should be ‘energised’ when losing fat and I’m the opposite! I’m going to ride it out and keep going! Thank you
My god, this video has really opened my eyes. Thank you so much for sharing this information. I really thought I was doing something wrong as I am currently experiencing number 4, 5 and 6 and now I know it is completely normal and I am just on the right track!
I have used your calculation to be in a calorie deficit for the last 4 weeks and my hands have been like icicles since then. Or maybe it's because I live in a cold state. I'm also hungry and tired! Whoo hooo! Thanks for the content as always. I love it all. #sortinghatsquad
I love this! I have been in a calorie deficit for about 8 months and have lost 40 pounds. I feel amazing. I still am eating lots of food and of course some chocolate, no weird diets, and am seeing amazing results and my workout have felt awesome
People hate to hear the truth. “Patience” is the word people hate hearing smh
I’ve been following your channel and IG. Can’t agree more with calorie deficit + patience + consistency = results! I have Been enjoying my favourite food time to time and I still never gave up in losing fat. Thanks Jordan you’ve been amazing! #sortinghatsquad
(And your videos are great too. Humour is on point)
Hey Jordan! This has seriously come at the best time. Since stumbling on to your channel back in October, I have spent the last few months just tracking and getting my head in the game. Not consistent in calorie deficit, but I needed to work on my head first. I'm now tracking everything (not just the good stuff) and despite a minor wobble where I signed up to a shake diet (facepalm...) I'm finally in a position where consistent calorie deficit is something I can do without my head trying to sabotage. I'm mostly CD now, just with a few Christmas celebrations that, for one, I'm enjoying and NOT beating myself up for - they were conscious decisions I've made. I've also not gone over my CD on days where I had celebrations - I just made the choice not to indulge those days - I've NEVER done that before, I've always treated Christmas as a big free-for-all. I've committed to the next 90 days post Christmas (literally have the Harry Potter 2020 calendar on the wall for those circles and x's) and can't wait to share how I go with you. Thank you so much for your no-nonsense (and also much nonsense!) approach and finally giving me back the confidence that I'm not a special butterfly, I just need to stick to it and it will come. Again, thank you. #sortinghatsquad
I’ve been worrying about my feet being so cold all the time. This explains it! Putting on my Gryffindor socks right now!
Thank you for all your insight. I hit a new low weight today without tracking. I think being stressed about counting calories all the time was causing a slowing of weight loss. I am using your advice on how to intuitively eat, and now my strength as gone up with my powerlifting, and the scale is going down. I also don’t obsess and just enjoy food how. Food anxiety is a real thing. You are a life-saver, Jordan! Thank you!
#sortinghatsquad
Over eating is a habit! Get into the habit of eating less.
But don’t under eat
Just discovered you. Not quite sure where you’ve been my whole life but glad I found you. Patience and consistency. I can’t f*#% this up. #sortinghatsquad
love your no bull content, definitely helped me see through my own bull haha
I'm working on enjoying the progress, small wins and being proud of what I've achieved.
hope you have a great chrissy
#sortinghatsquad
Dude as someone who just has had a shit ton of problems with finding out about Celiac disease, I needed this. Thank you for reiterating patience, because I’ve been an ass about that part! #sortinghataquad
Solid! Patience and consistency is what I consistently tell my clients!
I’m almost at my 90 days of tracking and even though I faced a few challenges on this journey I’m down 40 pounds! Huge thanks to you and your videos, you don’t know how much I rely on the information you put out. You’ve been an essential part in my journey. I will be texting you #sortinghatsquad
Wow, @NicoleMarie.Beauty - this is inspiring to hear. How long did it take you to lose that? It is a huge accomplishments. You motivate me to do want to see and listen to his videos so much!! Thank you for sharing your story!
Odette Barrientos Boo I watched Jordans videos and remained in a calorie deficit and just started moving more and took up yoga. 💗
How much did you start with?
I sleep less in a deficit. A lot less, in fact. Like I get insomnia. I have less energy during the day, but also sleep less at night.
Jordan, this was such a helpful video! I had been trying to lose weight with intuitive eating and have quickly realized it is not helping my weight loss and in fact has just led to weight gain. After watching this I realize I haven’t been in a deficit at all! I’ve been binge watching your videos the last couple of days and have so much helpful information! Huge thanks for all you put out there! #sortinghatsquad
The past 3 weeks I thought I was in a calorie deficit, I put on 2lbs.... I obviously was not, and looking at it closely I know I wasn’t. The tracking has started again and I’m already back on track, 4 days later, lost 2lbs! Super stoked and feel refreshed to start the process again. #sortinghatsquad. Plus you are awesome sir.
I needed this today. It’s been 4 days that I stop counting my calories. Back at it today. Thanks
Oh Jordan 🤦🏻♀️😂😂
#sortingfartsquad
Ashley D Awesome hashtag!! 😂😂
I’ve found you after searching quoting keto! I’m trying to gain a better relationship with food and weight in general! The way you explain things is so helpful for me and feel so much better and less terrible about quitting keto! I’m going to try your way for the 90 days!!
Harry Potter Fan and Fitness Expert rolled into one... the best!!
Patience + consistency + cal def = Results!!!! 💕👍🏽💕💕💪🏽💪🏽
#sortinghatsquad
The scale hasn’t budged in what feels like forever, thanks for reminding me that patience is king 💥 #sortinghatsquad
Your videos are so informative. I am a little mad I JUST NOW discovered them. You have answered questions I've had for years. Thank you!
Thanks for this! The basics really aren't that hard, but man keeping all this in mind over months and months and months (it's been a year for me, 65 pounds down, maybe 30 more to go) can get exhausting/frustrating. Have to mentally slap myself around sometimes and get out of the "ALL THE WEIGHT SHOULD BE GONE ALREADY, FRICK" mindset. Oh, also #sortinghatsquad
People not paying attention? What!
Love that we got a text alert and the hieroglyphics! #sortinghatsquad
I have been binge watching your videos and sending your Instagram profile to so many of my friends. I love your message and your style. For the past month I've just been focusing on staying consistent and in a calorie deficit. The difference between this time around and previous times, is that I am in a reasonable deficit...because like you say, it's not a fucking race. What am I hurrying for? Your down to earth approach has seriously done so much to help me work on myself and fix my relationship with food. It's honestly empowering. #sortinghatsquad #ravenclaw
Patience & Consistency 👌🏼 also being honest with yourself about how consistent you really have been! You’re not cheating anyone but yourself (notes to myself) #sortinghatsquad
“Well, it’s either been four days so obviously I need to STFU” 😂😂 literally laughed out loud at that one #sortinghatsquad
Great video! It’s reassuring to hear some of the physical signs that you’re in a calorie deficit. 👍 Thanks J and Rico!
#sortinghatsquad
Deficit, Patience & Consistency are the 3 tips things you’ve instilled in me since finding you! The 90 day consistency calendar/pass or fail daily tracker had helped me soo much! Can finally see why where I can improve! I take the total days I passed my calorie target within 100 calories and divide that by days of the month & can see that I have not even been 80% consistent with my deficit. Now it’s time to focus on improving that! Thanks J!
#sortinghatsquad
I’ve been on a health and wellness plan for 3+ years after a rare illness left me blind. Doctors told me it was crucial I get my health under control through fitness. So I found a program, started following a plan and was getting results. But I had ZERO clue as to why I was doing what it was I was doing most the time or how the ins and outs worked beyond the basics. A friend introduced me to your page and I started watching your video and so many things have clicked or been aha moment! Case in point I finally understand why my hands and feet are always bloody cold! I just wanted to say thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and not making it seem like this giant mystery behind the vail that only the personal trainer can know and understand! #sortinghatsquad
The hunger u get while u re in a calorie deficit is because your stomach capacity is bigger and in it fits more calories than your body actually needs . If you re in a calorie deficit means you wanna lose weight ,if you wanna lose weight means you re fat ,if you re fat means you eat too much than your body actually needs so....u make deposits of fat !
Well .....!thats why u re hungry in a deficit ...cause you eat less than you actually are used to . 👍🏼💪🏼
But only a thing i could say to all of you
NO MATTER WHAT ,NEVER GIVE UP !
Did ur deficit today have been a fail ?! It s okay ,tomorrow and next days u can make it ! If there s will to make it ,you ll make it !!! Have patience and dont be harsh to uself .... Take it slowly ,also the weight u gain ,u didnt gain it overnight ,so u cant expect to lose it like that fast .
The eye representing tiredness is perfect! My husband always says he can see it in my eyes whenever I'm tired (from lack of sleep or hunger) 🙈
And let me just say thank you for including the HP song because I feel magic everytime I hear it 💜
#sortinghatsquad
#sortinghatsquad
Love your common sense in these videos.
Have you ever done a video or conversation about weight loss surgery?
Love love love your videos and podcasts!!! Have been following you for a while now and actually started following a calorie deficit for the past 3 months and have already lost a total 7 pounds! #SortingHatSquad
Hi!! Where can I find his podcast?? I’m obsessed with him lol!!
Appetite is is usually mistaken for hunger.
Because we have so much food available 24 hours a day, we never allow our stomachs to completely empty and then we eat when it’s “meal” time instead of when our bodies are ready for more food.
I can ALWAYS tell I’m in a calorie deficit, because the first day or so I actually hear my stomach growl and that’s something that NEVER happens without me making an effort to curb my calorie intake.
Love you.
#sortinghatsquad
Hi Jordan,
After watching your videos, using calorie tracker I have lost 32.4lbs in 2/3 months. Every day I have had a big ass salad, never been hungry and a snack size chocolate bar, or a chocolate mousse for dessert after my evening meal so fuck the haters!
I honestly cannot thank you enough, without you I would've worried every time scales stayed the same or went slightly up. fact you give this advice away for nothing is so good!
Haven't watched yet, but I'd say if you're Effing starving... probably in a caloric deficit 😁
Thank you for all you do. I stopped solely using my scale weight as my success indicator after watching your Big Mac challenge video when it came out. I now use the way I feel and how my clothes fit and my scale anxiety has stopped! This video has been even more helpful. Thanks Jordan! 😘 #sortinghatsquad
BOY did I need to hear this. I’m trying to get myself in the best place possible to get ready for starting a family and recently I’ve been feeling so tired and more hungry and now I know...it’s because I’m in a calorie deficit!!!! Thanks for making me realise this is ok Jordan, I could literally binge watch your videos 🙈 #sortinghatsquad
For 3 weeks the number on the scale did NOT move in the right direction, it actually moved the tiniest bit *up* and I was so frustrated. Thank God for my belt, if not I would have given up. Making new belt holes was a way for me to know that things were progressing.
Imho weight is the worst way to measure your body fat, unless you're overweight. Weight can fluctuate just by the stuff you've eaten or drunk.
I'm using the Navy method to calculate my body fat. Body weight isn't even a factor that will change the outcome there.
I know what waist circumference is good for me and that's what I'm going by.
Consistency.
Patience.
Do what you gotta do when you are not motivated.
These are my weaknesses!!
After I lost 40 lbs, I lost my focus. I have been somewhat maintaining my weight. But I still have 25 lbs to lose to achieve my goal. I am watching your videos to get these 3 qualities that I need!
#sortingnhatsquad
#SortingHatSquad !!! So glad I got a text update for your video now, this is just what I needed. Thanks for all that you do Jordan! 😁🙌🏻❤️
nice - you had me in stitches...definitely agree patience is key and being consistent of course.
Needed to hear this today!!! Thank you!!! Society has made us crave instant gratification-being patient and consistent while hard-will be so worth it!
#sortinghatsquad
just came across your videos. very informative and very helpful!! Btw you are freakin hilarious! you make getting knowledge about weight loss super interesting and easy to understand. thank you.
Eat one half a piece of steamed fish. Add some lemon pepper for taste. 3 boiled eggs and 1 cup each of broccoli and cauliflower steamed everyday. And only this with water you will be in deficit. Especially if you only eat this between 1 and 7 p.m. don't forget to take multivitamins. Just heads up. You will get cold so get a hoodie
Hey, The intro 😂😂
Helping people laugh while loosing fat!
I ve been waiting for this video, thank you!
#SortingHatSquad
😂😂😂
Jordan is the bomb!!!!! His videos is so flipping helpful. I don't know where I'd be if I hadn't found you on Instagram!!!! Keep up the good work! #SORTINGHATSQUAD 💥💥💥💥💥💥
This is a REALLY good clip!!! VERY helpful (cold, tired tips)
Just found your channel and all I can say is YES! 🙌. Thanks for the honesty and straight talk! It’s great to know others feel and think the same way I do. I love the YCFU mindset! #sortinghatsquad
Tenessa Allen that makes me so happy, thank you!
Your content is so on track and I learn so much. You are by far the best "coach" online. I watch everything you put out. I have you on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter...all forms of siocial media ways to learn from you. Thank you Jordan. Love you, #sortinghatsquad
This is so helpful to see this all laid out like a worksheet than just someone talking for 20 mins straight. #sortinghatsquad
I really wish I had taken measurements a month ago when I started the CCC but I didn’t want to know how bad it was! At least today my ski pants fit better!!
#sortinghatsquad
This is too good. Too true. People need to watch this video.
It’s just confusing when you’re first getting started because every website gives a different number for what your calories should be.
Thank you for the reminder about hunger and feeling tired. I always heard you should feel more energetic but whenever I was in a deficit I’d almost always felt like taking a nap. Currently trying to get back on track and stay disciplined #sortinghatsquad
#SortingHatSquad
Honestly jordan... you don't even know how much you helped me changing my mindset. Basically your videos are like therapy for my mental health. Thank you ❤🤗
#sortinghatsquad
Jordan, thank you for always sharing the truth and for all the work you do!
I have a story to share with you! Your constant posts about how the weight on the weighing scale is just data and how it changes regularly, really helped me get over the fear of weighing myself! I ended up weighing myself everyday and not let it affect me 😁 I did the experiment for myself and saw how my body weight fluctuated
I had a yo yo year. The lowest I’ve been & the highest I’ve been this year. So inspired by this, thank you!!! #SortingHatSquad
Omg this is the best video I have ever seen. Super informative and entertaining
Patience is what I am mostly struggling with. I am really working on this for the last month. I've lost 1.3kg. In the past I would be super dissapointed, but thanks to your videos I am happy with it and am patient and looking forward to getting leaner❤
Love your videos and your casual swearing LOL. You are very thorough but at the same time you are to the point. Thanks for the great ubiased info!!!
Yes this video was helpful thank u jardan syatt
I have been in the inner circle for a month and I’m 3 kilos down. Slowly but surely getting back to my happy place🌸☺️💪🏻🤗
Love your videos, your approach has taught me so much, so much more than the numerous the weight loss groups and faddy diets I've tried in the past. Massive fan!
#sortinghatsquad
Yet another amazing video from our mans J. Thank you for your consistency in uploading - you’ve been a godsend! #sortinghatsquad
Ok, so I damn near fell off the treadmill when *farts* comes across the screen and you started cracking up! Absolutely hilarious... AND I realized something when you were explaining about hands and feet being cold and feeling sleepy. I started tracking in earnest (red X and black circle) on the calendar. Once I really put in the work, those exact symptoms were starting lol I could not for the life of me figure out why the fuck I was so cold all the time. This totally makes sense now! Thank you so much for all your info you share. You have no idea J exactly how much you are helping me. Love you #sortinghatsquad
Another great video! The way you explain things is magical...thank you for sharing your knowledge. I’ve learned so much from you already just by watching your videos...it’s amazing all the knowledge I need in one place! Lol I love the eye illustration...you’re getting better! #sortinghatsquad
man it helped my mental state a lot by having 2 points of consistent measurement.
every day I weighed myself before my lifestyle change (this was crucial since I found I had a 2kg wide fluctuation) and every week give or take I'd take a waist measurement.
I had not started taking progress pictures then (which I am now severely regretting since I don't have my initial photos now) and after eating less and started resistance training around 3-4 times a week I observed that my waist was definitely decreasing ( I saw a 2inch decrease) and my weight had come down by 5kg (from the top weight fluctuation, which is why it was good I daily weighed since I would've thought it was only 3kg loss otherwise).
my ratchet belt gave me more clicks, trousers started feeling looser.
tl;dr not relying solely on the scale confirmed for me that I was losing weight, ie, that I was in a caloric deficit
#sortinghatsquad
I’ve done a lot of exploring around macros/nutrition and you are legit the first person to say hey, if you’re goal is fat loss you’ll be hungry and that’s okay! The honesty is so appreciated!!! Love all your content! Thanks for sharing.
#sortinghatsquad really enjoyed your Jordan Sucks podcast - listened to it on Spotify so couldnt work out how to leave a review. I liked it because you answered a variety of questions instead of it being a podcast on just one topic like they have been recently, and being a shorter episode meant I could listen to it whilst I was driving to the gym. Looking forward to when you release your Sydney Australia date so I can book tickets to see you in Aussie! Hopefully we have a better Prime Minister by then haha
I love the simplicity, yet it is sooooo hard at this time of year. I am going to minimalize the damage,but enjoy this season and start again in January #sortinghatsquad. Thank you for your awesome patience and advice.
Thanks again for great content. Working on my protein Jordan & hate my f*****g scale! #sortinghatsquad
#sortinghatsquad the patience reminder is much needed this morning. I’m so close to where I want to be and the last little bit can be so frustrating. Taking a breath and finding a little more patience.
