Listen Later

Are you stressing over every little detail with macro tracking? 

If you’ve ever wondered how to track macros without entering every spice, measuring every gram of lettuce, or perfectly hitting your calorie goal down to the last number, this episode is for you!

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down all the things you don’t need to worry about when macro tracking—so you can focus on what actually moves the needle for your health and body composition goals. Because macro tracking should be simple, flexible, and stress-free, not a math equation that takes over your life.

I’ll walk you through common tracking stressors that just aren’t worth your time and energy. Whether you’re just starting to learn how to track macros, or have been at it for a while, you’ll walk away with a more relaxed, sustainable approach to macro tracking for weight loss and overall health.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • (03:02) The foods you can stop tracking immediately – Do veggies really need to be logged? The answer might surprise you!
  • (08:06) Why you should ignore net carbs when macro tracking  – Is “only 3g net carbs” just a sneaky marketing trick? Let’s break it down.
  • (12:34) Why your calorie total never perfectly matches your macros – Those small discrepancies in your macro tracking app? Here’s why they don’t actually matter.
  • (17:40) Flexible macro tracking 101 – Should you stress about eating the exact same amount of protein, carbs, and fats every day? (Hint: nope!)
  • (24:59) The truth about fitness trackers & calorie burn estimates – Are you eating back way more calories than you should when macro tracking for weight loss? Here’s why your smartwatch might be misleading you.

At the end of the day, macro tracking is a tool for empowerment—not something that should make your life harder. I’ll show you how to make it work for you without unnecessary stress.

Ready to simplify your macro tracking?

Hit play now, and I’ll show you how to track macros without the overwhelm so you can focus on what really matters for reaching your goals.
