The last time I lost a lot of weight, I became calorie-counting obsessed to the point where I was consuming less than 800 calories/day and working out hard 6x/week trying to move the scale once I reached a never-ending plateau (196 lbs). As a result, this time around, I was afraid to start counting.
Well, I’m so glad now as I’m finally starting to recall what a portion really looks like and seeing a little progress. Not calorie-obsessed, but getting more conscious. The only issue now is that I’m eating a fair amount less than my recommended calorie intake because of my current size. It’s the right portion sizes and I’m not hungry in between or after meals, just a little nervous it will have some negative impact down the road.
