Are you putting in the work but not seeing the results?

We all have our go-to “treat food” that, as hard as we try, is so hard to resist. 🍔 If you’re looking to reach your ideal weight, there’s nothing wrong with indulging every once in a while. However, it’s important to be aware of how often it’s happening and make sure it’s not sabotaging our weight-loss efforts.

As we age, our nutrition becomes increasingly more important when it comes to accomplishing our fitness goals. As our metabolism slows down the idea of “burning off” some less-than-ideal food choices can become seemingly impossible. 😢

That’s why we want to have a way to stay aware of what we’re taking in and how much. 🔎

Quitting ‘cold-turkey’ is often an unrealistic method of introducing change into our lives. In theory it’s great for quick results, however, it typically only lasts a few days to a couple of weeks before we fall back into our old habits or give up entirely. 😔

How to skip the calorie counting and nutrition math. 🧮 🍌🍳

Having a repeatable meal planning system is crucial for success with our health and fitness goals.

For many that system includes aspects that are hard to fit into our busy lives. These include;

• counting calories

• counting grams of macronutrients

• using measuring tools (cups, teaspoons, scales, etc)

• writing or tracking every detail down

There are 2 main problems with conventional meal planning strategies. 🤔

1. For most, it’s not feasible to bring your “calorie counting kit” with you every where you go (i.e. a friend’s house, the restaurant, etc).

2. It’s often not as accurate as we think (in spite of the effort).

If things get too challenging we risk either missing out on the results or finding it unsustainable and reverting back to something non-health promoting.
