Why is it worth counting calories?

1. Why it's worth noting the meals you eat
Applications are tailored to the needs of users One glass of orange juice contains about 100 calories, and a bar of chocolate (25 g) even 150 calories! However, if you have a large calorie database of foods and products, you can remember the products you have entered. Noting the foods you eat is very helpful when you change your eating habits, because many people don't know how many calories you actually eat in a day. For example, a glass of apple juice contains around 100 kcal and a chocolate bar (25 g), even 150 kcal! But only those people who have a high calorie content can take into account the amount of calories they consume and the weight they eat between the pieces of meat.2. The I.F.I.M. approach
The IIFYM nutritional approach is more attractive to many people because, despite the diet, they can eat almost anything. The idea of this dietary model is appropriate, however, many people over time start to incorporate only recreational foods into their dietary plan, so instead of eating a properly balanced meal, they eat e.g. a chocolate table and drink it with a protein shake. The rational approach of the IFYM is not bad, but it is worth maintaining a moderate inclusion in the diet of recreational products.3. The role of physical activity and a properly balanced diet in the shaping process
Physical activity, in addition to its effect on health and fitness, is a great tool for deepening calorie deficits. The results are often overestimated, which can have a negative effect, especially on reduction. It is known that in order to achieve the best results in the bodybuilding process, you need to take care of both proper diet and physical activity. However, it is not worth relying on 100% watches or other devices to monitor the number of calories burned during a training unit.
