Published: Feb. 2, 2021, 12:59 p.m.

In this episode I’m going to dive right into how and why calorie counting can be harming you and your weight loss efforts. Let’s just say it became a very unhealthy obsession for me and I’ll go into that a bit more as I discuss these top 3 reasons. 

 

Let’s keep in mind that “diets'' and calorie counting are NOT a one size fits all. If you are doing what everyone else is doing, you may want to take a few minutes and listen up. I had to learn the hard way but I want to inform you of the how and why so you can make the right decision for YOU when it comes down to it all. 

 

So what are the 3 reasons? I’ll just go briefly into them here real quick:

 

  • It’s not a one size fits all...somehow this calorie counting “Thing” falls under the “diet umbrella” so we think it’s the ONLY way ( P.S...It’s NOT!)
  • Calorie counting can lead you down the path of becoming obsessed with being perfect with all the numbers and if you should happen to “go over” on anything...you think you’ve failed ( It’s not you, it’s the DIET) 
  • This “way of life” has also somehow become the “norm” and had us tying it to our self-worth ( I stayed within my numbers!! HECK YEAH) ok, what happens if you don’t hit the numbers or go over? 

 

Be sure you listen to this full episode as I go further into detail on these 3 reasons along with the HOW on getting past the struggle.
