How do you approach that in your life?
Do you weigh all your meals? Use an app?
One of the reasons why I am not a big fan of calories counting is that I find it a bit cumbersome. I also think the focus is on the wrong thing. Calories are just one part of the equation. The quality of your food matters as much, if not more.
Wondering what is your opinion?
From a body composition perspective, it is only calories in and calories out. There is extensive documentation on this.. you can check out the little debbie snack cake experiment for this.
Food quality is important for not consuming other garbage that may potentially have harmful physical effects down the line, so by all means eat higher quality food... just don't think you can get away with eating 3,000 calories a day of "clean food" if your calorie requirement is 2200 calories per day.
It's really not hard to measure stuff. It's literally an extra 5 minutes out of your day.
