Episode 109: How to count calories

In this episode, I dive into the topic of calorie tracking—something that gets a lot of love and a lot of hate in the nutrition space. 

I’m not here to say everyone needs to do it forever (spoiler: you definitely don’t), but I do think it can be a really useful tool at certain points in your nutrition journey.

I talk through when it actually makes sense to track calories, when it might not, and how to approach it in a way that’s helpful—not obsessive. 

I also cover some of the most common mistakes I see people make, like underestimating portion sizes or getting too caught up in the numbers, and I share a few tools that can make tracking easier and less time-consuming.
