Ya know what I been hearing lately when I ask, what are you doing to try and drop weight?
This is of course after I was told that the person was trying to lose weight, so it’s not me attacking for no reason.
Anyway, this is the answer I often hear, “I been cutting out bread, pasta and other carbs.”
C’mon! How many fuckin times do I have to say this.
Just because you are cutting out one macro nutrient, whatever that may be, carbs, protein or fat, does not mean you will drop weight.
It comes down to calories.
Even if you cut out bread and pasta doesn’t mean you can stuff your face with fat and protein!
No matter how you cut it, you’re eventually going to have to shut your mouth and stop stuffing it with food.
That’s what it comes down to. If you are supposed to eat 2k calories a day to lose fat and you eat 3k of protein and fat, you’re going to get fat.
So, stop with the, “I started cutting carbs to lose weight.”
Say it properly, “I cut my calories to lose weight.”
This isn’t brain surgery!!!! It’s a fuckin math equation.
If you don’t know how to keep track use the My Fitness Pal App. It’s very easy and takes two seconds to input your nutrition.
Not only does it help you keep track of your calories but it also teaches you how many calories are in what types of food.
The app teaches you how to spread out your calories also. You will become more knowledgeable on what to eat and what not to eat.
You will learn that you get to eat a lot more low calorie food to eat than those foods filled with calories.
More fatty foods, more calories. Less fatty foods, less calories.
