I’ve been on a diet for two weeks and all I’ve lost is two weeks. You’re not lazy. You’re not inconsistent. And you’re definitely not “lacking discipline.”
In fact, it’s the opposite. You work hard. You follow the plan. You push yourself. And yet, every time you try to diet, you burn out. You either quit early, or push so hard that it becomes miserable… and you still don’t end up as lean as you wanted. You don’t have a motivation problem. You have a strategy problem.

Stop going out at the weekend. Thank you for reading. … Just joking!

According to some people in the more fear-mongering corners of the internet, it’s pretty much inevitable. In fact, as soon as your workout performance drops by a couple of reps… Gasp! You’re losing muscle. For this reason, some will even say you shouldn’t go into a deficit at all if you hope to gain muscle, even when you carry excess body fat.
