To me this is like saying “tape measures are a scam when building a building”

sure you could just wing the measurements but when things start falling over and you don’t know why…

for me calorie counting is just a way to diagnose why i’m not losing weight that fast. A data driven approach is useful for a brain like mine. I like to see numbers, stats, health bars.

If i fast all day and eat 3000 calories in one meal then i still won’t lose weight.

Not to mention your maintenance calories changes with your weight… i don’t see how you can just wing it and expect progress.
