It’s still not totally second nature, and my logging isn’t always perfect. It all sounded totally unrealistic and unsustainable.

And what if I change my mind and want more or less!? So much commitment. What if I’m using leftover grilled chicken or taco meat? And I’m certainly not always cooking just my own portion where I can weigh it before and plan it all out.

What if I’m at a friend’s house? I’m not always making a recipe fresh. At first I thought it was totally unrealistic. Although I can’t promise I won’t do the same thing. As if I can taste the raw meat to know if I’ve got the right amount in there. (Kind of like when recipes say add salt and pepper “to taste” to your meatballs or something…. When I first started tracking and would hear people recommend weighing things raw… It just made zero sense to me. Weighing meat and veggies before they’re cooked is just the easiest way to be accurate. That is kind of the key to macros after all– finally truly knowing and taking control of exactly what and how much we are putting in our bodies. Here’s the gist: it’s just all about LOGGING THE ACCURATE AMOUNT OF FOOD. You can reach your goals! And I want you to stay motivated.

Because nobody needs this macro-counting thing to be any HARDER than it already is. Ok, so first let’s understand what the big deal is about weighing your food raw vs cooked.
