Calorie Rant!!

Perry47

I don't count calories so I can't complete my daily log!!
I'm not a new user but sure do wish I could blank out the Calorie column. I follow a low carb diet, 10% maximum grams. If I complete my daily log...I should weigh at least 50 lbs. more according to their calculations. Very discouraging!
I am a Premium member and still can't eliminate the calorie column, except in my head.
Rant Over!!
If anyone has a script for this, please post it...there may be others out there that don't want to see this.
Thanks for listening.

You don't have to complete your diary to have the food save.

Also, if you close it out and it says you are going to gain you might want to actually think about calories. Low carb isn't magic, calories still count.

Calories don't count for me, low carb works for me, has for many years. No magic... but for my body, calorie counting has never worked. Probably because of a pre-disposition to diabetes which is hereditary in my family.
I have maintained current weight level for a few years, not counting calories but watching carb intake.

Completing the daily log doesn't really do anything though except if you want to see the 5 week prediction. It really is a useless feature otherwise.

I totally agree!

Whether you count the calories or not, your body counts them. If you are eating low carb and maintaining your weight, it means that your calorie intake is equal to your TDEE. Congrats on finding a way of eating that helps keep your calories in balance without you having to explicitly track them, but they are still fundamentally what drives whether you lose, maintain, or gain weight.

CICO works for everyone... healthy people, people with diseases, me, and you. Wether you want to believe it or not it still rings true.... unless you are alien.
