Standing in front of a crowd of people eagerly waiting to hear the secrets to fat loss.
I started out, “everyone who loves counting calories, please raise your hand.”
I wasn’t really surprised to see no movement, except for the turned down chins as people scoffed at the notion.
That is correct, no one in that group loved counting calories, let alone liked it.
As of today I have yet to meet anyone who enjoys it.
Recently the debate about caloric counting has come to life. Both sides of the debate are hot and both sides make very valid points.
But the problem is that both sides are missing the big picture.
In today’s episode I set the record straight.
Unless You Are Looking To Strut Your Stuff On Stage Counting Calories Is Useless!@Evolv_Fat_Loss
Forget counting calories. Lets use other tactics that will help us control our calories and give our bodies the nutrients it needs.
1. Work your way towards eating whole foods.
If you are not there today make one small step to get a little closer tomorrow.
2. Watch your portion sizes
Use your hand to keep score.
- 1 palm of protein
- 1 fist of vegetables
- 1/2 to 1 cupped hand of carbohydrates
- 1 thumb of fat

3. Eat Mindfully (This is an update from the video)
This will be covered soon
4. Figure out what you are going to measure
Weight loss and fat loss are two very different ways of measuring.
5. Outcome based decision making
Adjust your program based on your progress. Just make sure to make small adjustments. A complete overhaul could take you towards the wrong goal.
