Hi Zenith Catcher, Sticking to a healthy diet might be hard. In a world where we live in an abundance of food. Where ordering food has never been so easy. Eating too many calories can happen effortlessly. Here’s an interesting statistic emphasizing this: The average American consumes 900 more calories per day than the equivalent citizen in an OECD country.
Now, how can we ensure we consume the right amount of calories while still enjoying food? Option 1 is following the Hormozi Diet. The core idea is to ensure you hit your protein target and then backfill the leftover calories with whatever food you want. Option 2 (which I prefer) is choosing a few standard meals I can eat daily. Right now, I fast until noon. Then I eat meal no. 1: 6 eggs, 1 avocado, 200 grams of blueberries, 100 grams of dry meat. Meal no. 2 I eat in the evening: 200ish grams of rice (or other carb source), 200ish grams of chicken (or any other protein source), and some veggies. Those meals are super fast to prep and fulfill my nutritional needs (or at least I feel good). On top, I drink 1-2 protein shakes, creatine, and vitamins, minerals, probiotic bacteria, etc. from LifePlus. Routinizing what I eat makes eating predictable. It makes it easy to track. Important here that those meals are enjoyable. In my case, I love eating my lunch. Eating eggs with meat feels like a God-given gift. Now, from time to time, I still do a cheat meal where I go crazy with calories (although the older I get, I try to reduce this to be a good role model for my future children). However, about 90% of nutrition should be on point. Quick tip: If I do a cheat meal, I fast the entire day, work out, and have my cheat meal. Like this, I don’t gain significant weight. So what I described might change in the future; however, the core is to choose your 2-5 favorite meals and eat them consistently. Hope that helps. :) Much love, Nicola PS: Share this article with your friends here. Catch The Zenith PodcastI do a podcast where I pretend to have a Swiss accent (wink). 200+ episodes online about high performance and business. You can subscribe on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, or Spotify. This week’s episode: Episode 216: Your life is shaped by the decisions you make. Good ones move you forward. Bad ones set you back. In this episode, I share the simple 3-part framework I learned from entrepreneur Sam Ovens that changed how I decide — plus a 4-step method from Alex Hormozi you can use to make a better decision today. Listen here.
Things I’ve Learned This Week:1. How Men & Women Get Aroused Men are wired for speed — their arousal is visual, fast, and external. Women are wired for depth — their arousal is slower, built on emotional safety. Men can see “two rocks that look like breasts” and get turned on instantly. Women need trust, stability, and intimacy before desire kicks in. Evolution shaped men to be ready anytime; women to be selective gatekeepers. This matters because women often assume men get aroused the same way they do — and men assume women do too. Both are wrong. That’s why porn hooks men and emotional connection hooks women. Learned this from Adam Lane Smith in this episode. 2. Diagnosing Should Also Mean Undiagnosing In today’s culture, once you get a mental health label, it tends to stick for life. But that’s not how diagnosis is supposed to work. A diagnosis means you currently meet the criteria — not that you’re permanently broken. If you heal, regain function, and no longer fit the diagnosis, it should be removed. Undiagnosing should be just as normal as diagnosing. Adam Lane Smith: “If you can get a person to where they are fully functional… you remove the diagnosis at that point and say you no longer have this diagnosis. The problem is no one undiagnoses anymore.”
Learned this from here. Quote of the Week:“The next time some academics tell you how important diversity is, ask how many Republicans there are in their sociology department.” — Thomas Sowell
