Tracking macros: For what?
Happy Monday fit fam🤗 Tracking macros is a common topic of discussion when it comes to weight loss and fat loss or weight gain. Is it necessary to track macros to see results? not necessarily no.. But I will tell you what it did for me and what it can do for you.
Understanding macros helped me to understand the food that I eat, what my body thrives on, what it responds well to if I’m cutting or gaining. I tracked for a long time and it helped me gain insight to my body, it helped me be consistent, it gave me a tangible goal to hit everyday, and I saw VISIBLE NOTICEABLE progress that I could actually track. (I used MyFitnessPal app). It became a lifestyle change instead of a “diet”. Now, a couple years later I know what’s in my food, I know what my body likes, I know when I’m eating enough protein or carbs, or not enough, etc. I see ppl all the time focusing on the wrong things “I’m going to cut out all bread” “I’m cutting out all sugar, no sugar diet” “I’m cutting out all carbs I’m going keto” — one thing common to all those ppl is when I check in on them and their “diet” in a months time, 100% of the time they’ve already back slid or gave up. Because they’re focusing on the wrong things and trying to do too much “dieting”. Being knowledgeable about macronutrients is not a “diet”, it’s an understanding of the food you eat, that’s it.
If you don’t track macros I highly recommend you at least have a knowledge of what they are and how they correlate to the food you eat on a daily basis. Hope this helps !!😘
