Ep. 35 Eat The Donut: How to calorie count

In this episode of ETD, Kevin put on some pounds recently, up nine pounds, and expected the weight to just fall off once he got back into routine. A month later, it hadn’t, so he got back to counting calories, and this week he and Shannon break down exactly why and how. We start with the basics: what a calorie actually is, why “a calorie is a calorie”, and why tracking isn’t the obsessive or disordered habit people assume it is — it’s just data, no different than budgeting your finances.

From there, we get more tactical on how to figure out your calorie target, how to handle hunger without white-knuckling it, how to “budget” calories around a big event like a concert or vacation without derailing your whole week, and the most common tracking mistakes.

If you’ve ever wondered whether counting calories is worth it or just another diet culture trap, this one clears it up.APPLY for 1:1 Fat Loss Coaching: https://link.kpdfit.org/widget/form/QGcPjndSAJ79pBaVZBjz
