10 things keeping most people above 10% body fat:
1. Nuts — healthy, but incredibly calorie dense.
2. Milk in coffees and teas — small calories that compound daily.
3. Sauces and dressings — often the highest-calorie part of the meal.
4. Alcohol — lowers inhibition and increases food intake.
5. Smoothies — easy to drink 600+ calories in minutes.
6. Takeaways — calories are almost always underestimated.
7. Large plates — people consistently serve and eat more.
8. Not preparing food ahead of time — convenience usually wins.
9. Weekend “cheat meals” that become cheat weekends.
10. Constant snacking — calories consumed without real hunger.
None of these are inherently bad.
The issue is that they make calorie control difficult without you realising it.
Most people don’t fail because they eat one bad meal.
They stay stuck because they repeatedly underestimate the small decisions that add up over weeks, months, and years.
