I QUIT COUNTING CALORIES

After years of tracking my calories and mentally always knowing or wondering how many calories were in each morsel of food I put in my mouth, I QUIT!

I quit counting calories because it caused me unnecessary stress anxiety.

Counting took up so much of my brain space in the day. And I didn’t want to think about it anymore!

And as I matured in my fitness journey, I understood that you can still make progress without weighing and counting every piece of food that goes into your body!

Now I can HONOR my hunger and don’t feel pressured to finish everything on my plate because it’s being counted!

I prioritize having protein in every meal and filling my plate with fruits or veggies and good carbs. I don't worry about the macro ratio. I"m not perfect and I don't want to be, because that's not life!

Simplicity is best sometimes. And while counting calories can definitly help you reach your goals, it is not the right thing for me personally to do right now.
