I don’t believe you need to track your macros or calories to be able to nail your nutrition, following these general concepts can go a long way👇🏼
The problem with diet culture is it’s constantly trying to put a novel spin on nutrition, usually with a focus of losing weight.
While it might seem easier to follow some specific rules on what to eat and what not to eat, in reality it’s overcomplicating things for you.
One end of the spectrum is saying low-fat is better for you while the other is saying low-carb is better for you.
This diet says remove anything our ancestors didn’t eat, even though our ancestors didn’t live nearly as long as we do now.
That diet says eat these precise products that were manufactured by food scientists to slim your waist.
What if - and hear me out - we just went back to the basics?
Eat a balance of a variety of whole, real foods while moderating indulgences.
✔️No restriction is needed.
✔️You don’t need an abundance of willpower to stick to it.
✔️And when you get it right, you feel really damn good.
