It's all a Numbers Game - About Calories in Vs. Calories Out

It's all a numbers game, about counting calories as they come in and those as you burn them. If you're wearing the Armband, then you know what you're burning - within a 92% accuracy. SO, if you're meeting your Target Numbers with your Food Log and your Calories Burned, then the problem has to be SOMEWHERE. . . One of my clients is having a hard time losing. For weeks we went over his food log and tried to figure out what it could be, checking his measuring of foods and liquids. Helping him learn to use the Internet to check nutritional information from restaurants. I think that we finally have the problem nailed down, after weeks of saying ‘this is EVERYTHING that you ate yesterday?’ we finally figured it out. This person loves lifesavers and eats rolls of them a day (ROLLS of them) at 10 calories a candy! Once we figured that out, the calorie count came a little more under control they were better able to track their numbers, those affording the weight loss desired! Gotta LOVVVVVEEE the system!
