So, you’ve been on holiday.You’ve eaten differently, moved differently (maybe not at all), slept at weird times, and maybe even had mojitos for breakfast. And now you’re back, and wondering how to “get back on track.”Here’s the truth: there is no “track.” There’s just your routine. The one that works for you, that helps you feel good, and that doesn’t come with guilt or punishment attached.

One of the most common things I hear from people who walk through the doors at Function Fitness is a familiar worry: after missing a few sessions, they say, “I’ve messed it all up, haven’t I?” It’s a feeling many of us know all too well. This kind of all-or-nothing thinking can be one of the biggest obstacles to progress in fitness and in life.

Here’s the truth: no one needs to know exactly what I ate on holiday.But I’ll tell you anyway, because it’s probably not what you’d expect from a nutrition coach. Yes, I had pizza. Yes, there were ice creams. And yes, mojitos were involved (more than one).

You’ve likely done the gym thing. You’ve signed up for a challenge, downloaded a fitness app, cut carbs, joined classes, maybe even hired a PT. And yet, here you are. Feeling stuck. Wondering why the progress still isn’t coming. Wondering if maybe it’s you.

A glass of wine at the weekend. A few drinks with friends. A G&T after a long day. It’s part of life, and I’m not here to tell you to give it up completely. But if you’re trying to make changes to your body composition, your energy, or your habits around food, it’s worth understanding how alcohol plays a role.
