Everyone thinks getting lean means chicken breast and broccoli forever. That's not how it works.

Here's the actual science: fat loss comes down to a calorie deficit. That's it. Not food quality, not meal timing, not avoiding carbs after 6pm.

Quick example:

Say your maintenance is 2,000 calories. You eat 1,700. That's a 300 calorie deficit — roughly 0.6 lbs of fat loss per week.

Now here's the part most coaches won't tell you: it doesn't matter if those 1,700 calories include 2 slices of pizza. As long as you hit your protein target (~0.8g per lb of bodyweight) and stay in your deficit, the fat comes off.

The reason restrictive diets fail isn't science — it's psychology. You can't sustain a diet you hate. Period.

The real framework:

• Hit your calorie target (small deficit, nothing extreme)

• Hit your protein goal

• Eat whatever you want for the rest

• Stay consistent for 12+ weeks

That's it. That's the whole secret.

I built LeanFuel because I was tired of watching women torture themselves with diets that were designed to fail. If you want to learn the full system, come join us.
