If counting calories or macros works for you, then I am all for it, keep doing it!
But, if you haven’t found long-term success by doing so, and are feeling stuck or discouraged with losing weight, I would offer you this.
What if we don’t need to count calories or macros?
What if we don’t need to enter everything we’re eating into an app, or scrutinize how many carbs are in the foods we eat?
What if we could just eat when we’re truly hungry and stop when we’re full?
What if we could stop eating for emotional reasons or by the clock, and simply listen to our bodies and allow them to regulate our needs as they have for thousands of years, before processed foods.
Sounds too easy? Let me ask you this, do you check in with yourself before reaching for a snack or before filling up your plate?
Do you ever pause to ask yourself if your desire for a snack is out of true physical hunger, or is it for emotional reasons? Most of us don’t. Most of us fall into a pattern that we feel like we don’t have much control over changing, or that’s too hard to change. But what if it’s really not?
Learning how to pull back the curtain on our eating habits is really important if you’re not getting the results you are wanting with regard to your health. Taking a look at the psychology related your habits and using it to your advantage to get leverage over cravings is enormously powerful.
And when you can combine proven strategies along with personalized coaching to ensure you’re taking action, that becomes the key to long term success.
And then, deciding whether to count or not to count becomes unnecessary.
