1. The Calorie Wars
This lesson looks at the ‘calorie wars’ and why there are two sides to the question “do calories really matter?”
This is what we cover:
- Do calories really matter?
- “Calories are all that matters”
- “Calories don’t matter at all”
- All diets actually work
2. Calculating Your Calorie Budget
This lesson explores your “calorie budget” and how you can calculate your own.
This is what we cover:
- Your financial budget vs your calorie budget
- The 1-week rule
3. Forget Daily Calories
This video is a bit different than the others.
In 60 seconds I explain why you should not get hung up on daily calorie intake, and instead think on a week-by-week level.
4. What To Eat When You’re Eating Out
(There is no video for this lesson)
Staying healthy while dining out can be a stressful task.
Prepping your own meals/snacks always is the way to go… BUT once in a while if you are running around and didn’t get a chance to prep, or are out eating with family or friends, these are some healthy options to choose from at some of our favorite restaurants.
