you're intermittent fasting but how many calories can you eat let's talk about
that so I get this question a lot lately and
that is how many calories are you eating they know that I'm eating once a day but
they're wondering how many calories and I have to give them the very
unsatisfying answer I don't know I only know that I eat once a day
that's my only rule I do that Monday through Saturday just one meal per day
during that one meal per day I do not restrict calories I do not count my
calories I do not track my calories now let me be clear there are some
intermittent fasting people out there that will still tell you you need to
track your calories everything it's just not something I do so let me tell you
about my experience with counting calories back in 2015
you know I'd start weighing myself and I was trying to figure out how to lose
weight and I started in a minute fasting and but it was a really short window a
fasting that I was doing and so I decided well I'm gonna also count
calories and do macros and all this stuff and so what ended up happening was
I drove myself crazy because I started out you know I would use my Fitbit
whatever it was telling me I was burning in calorie count I would use that to say
okay I need to be at a deficit and I would log all of my food and I saw no
results so the next thing I did was I said well I must not be doing this right
so I started measuring my food and tracking it still and it still wasn't
working now maybe it was just being impatient I don't know but then I
started really driving myself crazy I started weighing all my food it was
absolutely driving me bonkers it made me feel completely deprived it really put
me in a bad place because let me tell you like when you measure out a quarter
cup of like shredded cheese and then you're like sprinkling it on your taco I
just I hated that I felt like it's so unfair that I'm having to do this like
you know measure my stuff and then everybody else to the table was just you
know piling on as much as they wanted and the thing is is I love big portions
and that's really why I landed on this plan I did not want to have to sit there
and weigh my food and track it the reason why intermittent fasting works
for me eating one big meal a day I can still have those big portions that I
really like without having to track my calories otherwise at least that's
what's worked for me I'm the type of person who if I'm gonna put butter on my
roll it's gonna be a slathering of butter you know if I'm gonna put cheese
on top of something it's gonna be a whole lot of cheese it's just
how I like it so if you're curious as to what I eat a couple of months ago I did
post a video that was called intermittent fasting meal plan and in on
my website on the actual blog post I listed everything that I ate for that
previous week and so you can really get an idea and you can really see I do not
restrict any kind of foods I will eat whatever I want for my meal some nights
of spaghetti other nights it's steak some nights it's beans and rice it's just all
the different foods so I think the way this intermittent fasting plan works for
me I am in some sort of caloric deficit I just don't really know how many
calories I'm burning or how many I'm consuming I just see the evidence of the
caloric deficit when my weight is going down so I'm curious to know about your
experiences with counting calories do you do intermittent fasting with
counting calories I don't but you know maybe you have had success with it let me
know in the comments below I love to see all the different ways people are
found to lose weight and be successful at it and I know there are people out
there who have had tremendous success with counting calories so thanks for
