Do You NEED To Track Calories?

Weight Loss

“Calorie counting is boring”

I have tried calorie counting before and it didn’t work”

First off… you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to

But if your goal is to lose weight, reduce body fat and feel like a million dollars in a swimsuit

It’s worth reading on…

To lose body weight and fat, requires a consistent calorie deficit #ccd

If you eat less calories than you burn off, over a consistent period of time

Change will happen

Success will come

It’s the first law of thermodynamics, a scientific term for fact 😉

How you create this #ccd though, is up to you

There is NO one best way

But you know that saying, “you can’t manage what you don’t measure?”

How do you know you’re actually eating in a #ccd?

Yes, you could use strategies such as intermittent fasting

That will help you eat less, and possibly create a #ccd

But the reality is, weight/ body fat loss is a game of numbers

You want results, and you want them fast

Tracking, measuring and evaluating the numbers on a daily, weekly, monthly basis

Guarantees you get those results, at the speed you want

It also teaches you the composition of food

E.g. do you know how many calories there are in a large dominos pizza?

The answer- you don’t want to know!!

Eating clean, intermittent fasting, carb cycling… they all MIGHT work

Tracking calories, WILL work

“But it’s so much effort,” I still hear you say…

Change requires effort

If you can’t commit to inputting your days food into an app that will take 2.7 minutes out of your day

Maybe you’re not ready to change?

Or maybe you need to understand nutrition a little better?

Tracking your daily calorie intake isn’t the be all and end all

It’s going to depend largely on your lifestyle, your goals and the time frame that you want to achieve them

It’s not something you need to do forever

But to begin your journey it’s a bloody good place to start!!
