This week on Stick to Fitness, we break down why calorie tracking isn’t the silver bullet everyone thinks it is — and how the app that’s supposed to help your fat loss… might actually be holding you back.

We dive into:
Why your MFP log looks more like Wikipedia than science
The hidden problem with “eat whatever, just hit your numbers”
Why tracking might teach you nothing if you don’t know what you’re looking for
And why food accuracy is a pipe dream when you’re scanning barcodes on Chinese takeout

It’s not about bashing tools.
It’s about using them like a coach, not a confused intern.

If you’ve ever felt like tracking was doing more harm than good, this one’s for you.
