Why Calorie Counting Isn't the Key to Weight Loss


Listen Later

In this episode, we're spilling the tea on a topic that had me stuck for years: calorie counting. 

If you've ever spent hours tracking every bite in a fancy app, only to feel frustrated when the weight keeps coming back, I feel you---and I've got good news.


Counting calories feels like it should work (and hey, it might for a hot second), but it's actually sabotaging your long-term success. Today, I'm breaking down why the old-school "eat less, move more" mantra doesn't hold up and how it leads to cycles of over-restriction, binging, and burnout. Trust me, you're not failing the diet---it's failing you!


I'm sharing the real game-changers: balancing your hunger hormones and embracing healthy restriction. No more 1,200-calorie days that leave you white-knuckling it through life. Instead, let's nourish your body, feel full, and lose weight for the last time.


We also talk about how to stop the yo-yo dieting madness and start living in a way that actually feels good. Because who wants to be chained to a scale or an app forever? It's time to stop working against your body and start working with it.


So grab your headphones, hit play on this episode, and you'll understand: 

  • How the over-restrict and binge cycle keeps you stuck---and what to do instead
  • Why balancing hunger hormones is the secret sauce to effortless weight loss
  • How healthy restriction can feel freeing instead of punishing
  • Why calorie counting doesn't deliver the permanent results you're looking for
  • How you can nourish your body and still see the scale move in the right direction


OMG, you guys! I am so excited because our three-step plan to lose weight WITHOUT calorie counting is finally live. There's a masterclass, the actual plan that you will get and create, and then there is accountability. And we're offering it for only $37. So go to lauraconley.com/calorie to get your plan today!
