Monica Reinagel has been helping people create healthier lives for more than 15 years through her Nutrition Diva podcast, books, online coaching programs, and in-person workshops. As a licensed and board-certified nutritionist, her approach is grounded in science but is also practical and realistic. Monica also co-hosts the Change Academy podcast (with me) and runs the sustainable weight loss program, Weighless (also with me).

In this episode, we dig into:

• What the heck is a calorie?
• How do companies measure the calories in food?
• How do our bodies use the fuel we give them?
• How is calorie expenditure measured?
• How accurate are calorie-in counters (like MyFitnessPal)?
• How accurate are calorie-out counters (like FitBit or Apple Watch)?
• Is there anything we can learn from tracking calories?
• What do we miss when we focus too much on calories?
• What can we do instead of counting calories?
• What is the best way to fuel your workouts?
