HEALTHY vs HEALTHY?? (read this caption!)
⠀
⠀
Please follow @bodybuilding.tricks for more great content!!?? Let me just say that I am a BIG FAN of eating HEALTHY FOOD (of course?). However, trying to reach any fitness goal (fat loss/muscle gain) by simple “eating healthy” can be a frustrating journey.. ?
⠀
⠀
Explain?
10 years ago I didn’t know a single thing about calories or macronutrients. Zero. So when I tried to go on a diet, and tried to lose some weight, I would just start “eating healthy”. So I would cut out (what I thought was) unhealthy foods like bread, candy, chocolate etc. And only eat foods labeled as “healthy” (?)
⠀
⠀
Guess what? It didn’t work. I didn’t lose any weight. So it was basically what I call a lose-lose situation (opposite of win-win?). Because I didn’t get to eat the foods I enjoyed (??) and it didn’t even make me lose weight.
⠀
⠀
Fast forward a few years and I started learning about calories and macros. And the fact that I could fit some chocolate or some ice-cream into my otherwise healthy diet and still lose weight.?? because total caloric intake IS the number 1 thing that controls weight-management (Not if the food is “healthy” or “unhealthy”).
⠀
⠀
So to wrap up this reaaaally long caption (sorry) I want to say that HEALTH matters a lot. But when it comes to losing weight, there has to be an understanding of calories. Because as you can see in the picture there can be a big difference of calories in two foods even though they’re both “healthy” !!

If you read till here then I freakin love you! Hope you’re having the best week evrrr!!?
Thanks to @thobrandt for the picture.
