This email contains my bullsh*t excuses

I wanna start off with apologising to you.

I didn't email yesterday and I know how you love yourself a little
daily slice of Ian toast.

I failed in our commitment bond but there's lessons to be found.

This week I have my 8 year old going on 18 daughter - Tiana.

I have her week on, week off during the summer hols.

And I know I don't have to tell you what it's like during the
school holidays right.

Yesterday I got home after my early morning session with all the
intentions of writing my daily email.

Something cropped up, so I thought I'll do it in a little while.

Tiana then wakes up.

I have to get her ready for her annual Nanny & Grand Daughter shoe
shopping day.

So being the Dad I am I get her dress looking like a multi coloured
dream coat, get the hoover out and put her hair in a legendary pony
tail.

Off she goes.

Ok, time for the email after my dinner. I finished dinner then
starts f*cking about with the hoover filters like the geek I am to
get a turbo sucking hoover.

Basically I put everything else in front of doing the thing I
needed to do, to the point I got home from sessions at 7:30pm and
did naff all all night and was a reet lazy buggar.

Excuses after bullshit excuse.

I bit like when you wanna exercise.

You find everything possible to do before it's too late and it goes
by the way side.

One day won't harm, I'll do it tomorrow...365 tomorrows go by and
still no exercise and by now your so pissed off with yourself,
unhappy and sluggish that you can't be arsed doing ought.

Too many tomorrow excuses turn you into one of them bad ass
keyboard warriors in time, that tell everyone else that they're fat
and need to do something about it.

Or that everything's a scam cos she couldn't possibly lose weight
that easy.

I'm gonna tell you something right now that you may not believe.

Losing weight is easy.

You can find out how to lose weight from anywhere nowadays.

The hard bit is having the accountability. You can find an
abundance of it here BTW

The hard bit is doing it week in, week out.

I know you, your wired up to have a start and end date diet.

Once you've achieved your target it's back to 'normal' eating.

Back to I'll do it tomorrow.

I'm nothing special, I have a mentor that keeps me accountable and
today your reading my email.

I'm not letting my fuck up from yesterday effect me.

Straight back to it.

Because doing the small things, the things that you don't always
wanna do.

The consistent shit.

WILL get you the result you want.

PS. Tomorrow I'm gonna tell you the story of my sister and her
fella I promised you about this week.

I used to fall asleep and wake up in Europe

I used to love getting on a plane.

I'd always get the window seat, take my trainers off and nod off
for the duration.

For some reason flying makes me sleepy.

I'd wake up fresh as a daisy in another country.

That's all changed!

I have to fight with Tiana for the window seat, I always end up
losing and stuck in the middle.

Lianne's scared off taking off and landing so I have my hand
squeezed to the point that stops the blood flow.

I have to answer the question 'what was that noise' every shitting
two minutes.

Oh, it'll just be the wheels is my standard answer or I'm not a
f*cking pilot if I'm fed up of answering.

I always wonder why Lianne puts herself through it everytime.

I mean she HATES flying.

Makes her really nervous the night before.

I asked her last week.

She said I want the experiences, I'll go through it to feel and
experience the things I want.

Fair enough, you'd do the same right?

We have ladies joining us next week, You can join them by clicking
here a lot of them have said they're shitting it over how unfit
they're gonna feel.

They'll go through the uncomfortable bit, hopefully they won't
squeeze my hand - that'd be awkward.

But they'll go through it to experience having the confidence and
body they want.

Getting outta your comfort zone always makes things worth while in
the end.

Ian Goes Balls Deep In France

I've just come back from the south of France, to be honest I didn't
fancy it that much before I went.

But fuck me what a place, it's balls deep in money there.

We went on a day trip to Italy and Monaco...Monaco is outta this
world. It's my new favourite city!

Lambo's, Ferrari's, Porsche's all flying about. The Yachts are
amazing too, they're like cruise ships.

I'd move there in a second.

That's something I thought I'd never say. I had a HUGE hang up
about France ever since school. Didn't like the subject, couldn't
be arsed learning the language and swapped it for spanish half way
through.

Always thought the French were up their own arses and proper
arrogant.

But to be fair I had a mint time and the people we met were really
helpful even when I tried in my best Heywood/French accent to order
food or drinks.

I made an assumption without really knowing the facts, everyone
guilty of it.

You probably presume that cos I'm a trainer I eat chicken and
lettuce all day with protein shakes thrown in the mix - the latter
I do have.

I love a drink, I do eat shit food at weekends and guess what I
don't always train 1000000% of the time because like you I'm a real
person.

I know my boundries though and a lot of women just don't. They see
one fuck up as an excuse to go all out for 3-4 days and then feel
guilty after and pissed off with themselves after.

You probably need a kick up the arse each week to get going.

I give that in abundance by the way.

It's that dreaded weekend that knackers everyone up.

It's all about the dedication and not letting you listen to your
own excuses.

If you wanna achieve it then go all out and get it!

Do not let yourself fail.
