On today's episode as part of the Fit Girl Fall series, I am sitting down to discuss two ways to approach calculating your calories for fat loss regardless of if you want to track your food intake.

Determining your target calorie deficit is an important core step towards your journey to losing body fat because without context into how much you should be eating, it's very challenging (if not impossible) to determine the daily food plan you should be following.

For this reason, I'll be sharing two methods I use with clients to help you determine how much you should be eating for results. The first method is rooted in science and numbers, while the other method is less invasive into your lifestyle and instead uses how you currently eat in your real-life to help guide how to get into a calorie deficit.

By the end you'll leave this episode with knowledge on how to determine how much you should be eating and how to apply this information to your daily life to begin seeing fat loss on both your body – and the scale.
