You need to be in a calorie deficit in order to lose weight. And while eating whole, unprocessed foods will absolutely help you stay in a deficit, choosing those foods alone is not sufficient for weight loss.

Tracking has gotten a bad rap in the past decade or so due to anti-diet culture. But tracking in and of itself is not obsessive or disordered. It brings awareness and accountability to what you’re ingesting. And research has shown that people pathologically underestimate what they’re eating.

If you don’t know how much you’re eating, you’ll be guessing at your caloric deficit number. That is a very unwise and ineffective way to go about weight loss.

Confused and need help? DM me for questions 🙂

Before trying having a standard breakfast, lunch, and dinner (of course there will be exceptions sometimes), I thought it sounded dismal.

The reality is much different. It brings decision fatigue to zero. It simplifies your grocery shopping and meal prep. And it works because you know exactly what you’re eating.

If you’re skeptical, I get it. Try it for 2 weeks and see what it does. It’s worked for every single client who’s tried it, and is also shown again and again in research to be effective for weight loss.

Being disheartened by a scale fluctuation is normal, but this is where tracking can help us.

First, look back at your food log (Cronometer Instrumentos is my favorite app). The most common culprits for a several-pound overnight increase in weight are alcohol, salt, and carbs. And the swing can be seen for several days after having these things.

Secondly, don’t just spot-check your weight. Weigh daily and take the 7-day average. Compare the weekly averages, not a single day compared to another.

Here’s the thing, and this is especially true is you’re used to eating out: you’re probably not going to enjoy the foods that help keep you in a deficit as much as the foods that put you into a caloric surplus - at least not at first.

And if you think about it, it’s pretty unfair to ask ground turkey to compete with steak frites. It’s not nice. It’s mean. And it’s not nice to be mean.

Join a book club. Start listening to a new genre of music. Get really into watching the restoration of antique copper cookware. If mentally and emotionally exhausted, a new topic/perspective/whatever can be invigorating.

Weight loss comes from a calorie deficit. Always has, always will. Maintaining weight loss happens when you change your relationship to food. And that means you stop relying it as your primary or sole source of pleasure.
