ADVICE

Use Macros Briefly, Then Stop

  • Avoid tracking macros forever; use it briefly to build awareness and education about intake.
  • After learning, shift to behavior-based habits like whole foods, protein-first meals, and satiety cues.
ADVICE

Ditch Heavily Processed Foods

  • Avoid heavily processed foods because they're engineered to make you overeat and disrupt appetite control.
  • Replacing those with whole foods alone often yields meaningful fat loss (10–15 lbs for many clients).
INSIGHT

Food Is Engineered To Be Irresistible

  • Food manufacturers apply deep behavioral science to optimize palatability and overconsumption, similar to tactics from tobacco.
  • That engineered palatability makes processed foods uniquely hard to moderate compared with whole foods.
