I see many people worried about the scale and also what they "are not supposed to eat". So, let's address two areas today... the Scale and Nutrition.
The Scale: Your weight can fluctuate a few pounds up or down each day for many different reasons. The goal for our bodies should not focus on the scale, but rather health and body composition. Let's continue to build muscle and lose fat. Muscle weighs more than fat, so the scale is not always a true indicator of what's going on. If you lose dress sizes, pant sizes, but weigh more or your weight doesn't change... You have added muscle! Congrats!
Nutrition: My motto is "Don't count calories, make your calories count." If you feel you need to monitor calories, that's okay if that works for you. The main thing is to focus on eating good healthy foods, multiple times per day, and watch portion sizes.
Perspective is important when thinking about nutrition. The focus shouldn't be on things like "I can't eat bread" or many other food trends. The focus should be on eating nutrient dense food like lean protein sources, good grains (including bread), fruit, veggies, and Good Fats! Eat the foods you like and figure out how to prepare them in a healthy manner, always being sure to include the categories listed above. This is a lifestyle, not a diet or food fad.
