Why You Should Stop Counting Calories

Counting CaloriesBefore you bust a button, hear me out. Labels and exercise machines both have their appropriate place. A label is great for showing the vitamins, minerals, and ingredients in our food. An exercise machine is great for getting people off the couch and working out. My beef with labels and machines is not what they do per se, but the myth they perpetuate. Through their function, they feed into a way of thinking about weight loss that actually makes it harder to control weight. They've turned us into a community of heavies who worship at the altar of one seemingly omnipotent number: the calorie.
"One definition of insanity is: Doing the same thing again and again and expecting a different result."
"Start doing what's necessary, then do what's possible, and suddenly you'll be doing the impossible!"
"Anything is possible, It's your choice whether or not you choose to make IT happen."
