I hope everyone had a great Holiday weekend and that you stayed on the right track.
If you are still skeptical about doing a daily food log, below is an excerpt from an article I found over the weekend that states how important it is to track your calories. I am posting the entire article on the Intranet under HR/Wellness/Articles & Training/Top Tips to Tighten and Tone Your Abs. I was also asked a question regarding Diet Sodas. I am posting something on DHTV that explains some of the dangers of diet soda. Hope this helps you all!
Count your calories.
Different health and fitness professionals will tell you different things, but this is my personal opinion based on 20+ years working in the fitness industry (especially with women). If you want to lose weight and see your abs, you have to count your calories! Just following the latest diet trend won’t cut it. You see, diet plans are created for the average person. So based on your body type, you could actually gain weight even if you’re eating super healthy. You need to know how many calories you’re burning to know how many you can take in. And if you’re really serious about your results, you’ll invest in a calorie-monitoring device, so you have an accurate idea of what you can afford calorie-wise. I highly recommend the Bodybugg or the Fitbit.
Keep up the good work!
