I no longer have to worry about counting calories to maintain my weight.
I simply don’t get hungry when I don’t need food.
When calorie counting Id be eating every two hours, constantly snacking and weighing a budget of calories I could spend on food.
Sure, technically I’m adhering to some calorie count that I don’t even know what it is anymore. But my body takes care of keeping track. I’m hungry, I have a bigger portion. I’m not hungry, I don’t eat.
And the fundamental thing is when I was calorie counting and eating whatever I wanted whenever I wanted, my weight was constantly going up!
It took constant vigilance and the willingness to go long periods feeling like shit to keep my weight in check.
Now, my weight just maintains. I never thought it was possible. And the simplistic ‘a calorie is just a calorie’ noise is no longer a belief I subscribe to.
