Don’t like tracking food?
Look sometimes I don’t either. But it can make things difficult when you’re trying to lose weight (more specifically fat) but I will say when maintaining, it’s actually quite easy.
If you focus on eating foods high in protein, there’s room for movement with other macros like fats and carbohydrates. I’d argue that most people even when trying to reach a goal should go through periods of time where they focus on just eating a balanced diet.
No one wants to track forever and I’m a big fan of it.
If you don’t want to track but want to avoid gaining weight then my advice is to look at food as a source of nutrition and not something you can just binge endlessly. Have a portion of something and then move on.
Packets of chips on the couch are cool. A serving of a packet of chips on the couch is the same thing.
The goal should always be to consume 90% the right stuff, you’ll then be surprised what you can get away with when having the 10% 🤝
