The Macro Hour

Why Counting Calories Keeps You Stuck (and What to Do Instead) | Ep. 303


Listen Later

In this episode of The Macro Hour, Nikkiey Stott breaks down one of the biggest misconceptions in women’s fitness: that counting calories is enough to change your body.

She explains the real difference between calories and macronutrients — and why calories only control your weight, while macros control your shape. Using relatable examples like choosing meals at a café, Nikkiey helps listeners understand how two 400-calorie meals can impact the body in completely different ways depending on their protein, carb, and fat breakdown.

Whether you’re brand new to macros or have spent years chasing low-calorie diets that never seem to work, this episode will shift how you view food forever. Nikkiey teaches how to start fueling your body for tone, strength, and lasting fat loss — without restriction or confusion.

👉 Perfect for women ready to stop eating less and start eating right.
