When you set out to count macros, you most likely have a goal that you're seeking to achieve at the end of it all. This could be you want to gain more muscle, lose weight, or just want to feel more energized. But let's be honest. Sometimes binging comes knocking when you least expect it. If that happens, what should you do? Should you be militant about the macro counting process or should you just indulge? Let's find out. 

In this episode, we sit down with Aria and she shares with us how she overcame the binge cycle and all the things she did to help her overcome the YOLO effect. We also speak about the amazing methods that helped her master macro counting. Finally, we have a conversation on whether you should stay lean all year long or you should put more weight at some point.
