The truth about calories in calories Out
I am about to wander around one of the most hot discussions in the world of fitness with you.
Does “calories in calories” work? Two groups of people scream to each other online.
Group 1: “It is simple! Just eat fewer calories than burning!” Group 2: “It is not about calories! This doesn’t work!”
So what should we do from that?!
This is the thing:
Both sides are fine.
Also … they argue in the past in the past in a way that I think is not helpful to everyone.
Let’s divide it.
⚖ calories against calories: principle
From a scientific point of view, we already have Mount Evidence Studies to support principle Of calories against calories.
Thermodynamics law still applies to human bodies.
If we are able to do so completely Measurement of calories consumed and calorie burning, and will track weight changes.
This part is reliable and repeated!
but…
🧠 When most people say, “Calculating calories did not work for me,” they do not argue with the principle
They say:
- “Calories tracking made me miserable.”
- “I was always hungry.”
- “I hit a wall that I could not overcome.”
- “I fully tracked and nothing changed.”
- “It was very stressful to keep it.”
They say road He did not work for them.
Not physics.
🔄 Method ≠ Principle
This is where many people stumble.
Calories in / calories = principle
Caliphs tracking = a road
You can affect calories in the equation/calories Without tracking one calories.
You can also follow every bite and still feel stumbled – because The behavioral side outside:
- Hunger hormones
- Tension levels
- Sleep quality
- Environment and operators
- Energy to prepare or move
It is not only about knowing the numbers.
It comes to building customs and strategies that help these numbers to change.
✅ For this reason we say
Weight loss is not magic. It is changing behavior in mathematics.
All calories are important. There are many environmental, physical and psychological factors that affect the amount of what we eat and the extent of our move. I have always loved this graph from the exact feeding that shows all the hidden factors that enter calories in the equation.
So what is the “correct” strategy?
He is the person who helps You It affects this equation … sustainable.
Some people like to track. Others hate it.
Some people do great with a portion control, high protein meals, or reduce eating abroad.
Nothing breaks the principle.
They are only Different tools For the same job.
For one person, calorie tracking (method) may help them to be more aware of their parts and food options throughout the day. They start planning for the future to eat meals, and this leads to a minor and sustainable calories deficit for them. They do not hit everything completely, but over time, they start seeing progress. For someone else, calorie tracking may completely lead to completely counterproductive results! It makes them feel nerve and obsessed with numbers. It is really difficult to do, and even in the best scenarios, calories at home is not an accurate science. After several weeks, they do not see progress and make the process feel the institution and frustration, not empowerment. Each of these cases is natural and expected. We all have the same bodies, the same environments, or live in the same position!
In fact, as soon as you realize it, it is similar to eating the red pill in the matrix. You can see the code everywhere, and apply the same thinking process to any diet or method there.
Kito. Balo. Intermittent fasting. For some people, these methods create The behavior changes Which leads to sustainable calories in calories, calories outside. For others, they do not.
So, if you have a co -worker saying: “You have lost a lot of weight, just need to do X! You must try it!” Then I tried it and did not work for you – you are not broken, this was not the right strategy for you at that time.
💡 Conclusion
Let’s stop the discussion whether The principle works.
Instead, let’s start asking:
What is the best way for this individual person to put this principle into effect, without burning?
You do not need to calculate all calories.
You He can Calculate calories if it helps.
You can make progress absolutely by focusing on the habits and behaviors that affect this equation in a sustainable way.
