Your friend: Drops 10lbs in a week on their celery-and-air diet. 🍃 You: Hitting your protein, lifting weights, sleeping 8 hours… and the scale won’t budge. 🤨 Here’s the thing: you might be missing the simple fact that fad diets = quick water weight loss, not actual fat loss. When your friend cuts carbs or drastically lowers calories, they’re losing water and glycogen (your body’s energy stores), not body fat. That’s why their results seem instant. Meanwhile, you’re doing it the right way—building muscle, fueling your metabolism, and focusing on fat loss that actually lasts. Sure, it’s slower, but the progress you’re making is real and sustainable. So don’t stress if your progress looks different. You’re playing the long game, and that’s how you win. 💪🔥
