In the Fat Burning Kitchen, one of the top 3 books every overweight person should read, author Mike Geary tells readers they can officially stop counting calories.
And while that may sound shocking to many, he quickly goes on to explain why.
First and foremost, calorie counting in and of itself is a bit inaccurate.
Two apples, grown on two different trees, in different regions of the world, will have a different calorie count.
Add that to the fact that most people grossly underestimate just how many calories they are consuming, and you see why calorie counting isn’t all that accurate.
Is that to say it doesn’t work?
Not at all….counting calories does indeed work.
It helps people become aware of how much they are eating, which in turn helps them adjust their caloric intake.
Once you are consuming fewer calories than you burn, then you will start losing weight.
So now the question is, how can you lose weight without counting calories?
The answer is simple….
Nutrient density.
When you understand the nutrient density of the foods you eat, you will never have to count calories again.
When we say nutrient density we are referring to the micronutrients, which are the vitamins and minerals, found in the foods you eat.
If you consume a diet that consists of mostly high micro nutrient density foods, your body will automatically regulate your appetite.
That means you will never have to worry about calorie counting again.
