Along with tracking macros, we encourage all of our clients to track dietary fiber. Recording the amount of water you take in everyday and being certain to hit your goal is another way to move that needle on progress. Sometimes we assume we are good about our water intake and we stop being vigilant about it.
MACRO COUNTING RESULTS PLUS
A good goal to shoot for is half your body weight in ounces plus 20 additional ounces for every hour of exercise. When you’re dehydrated your metabolism can slow, your training suffers, and your body doesn’t flush out toxins and can’t regulate itself as easily. Are you keeping track of your water intake? Our bodies are made up of 60% water. You’ll reap the benefits both inside and out when you include sleep in your fat loss game plan.

Trade screen time and over stimulation for stretching, reading, or even a bath before bed. Not only does sleep help to improve energy level, but it is vital for regulating hormones, mood and impacts your metabolism! Want to see better progress? Make sleep a priority. I know mamas, this is FAR easier said than done, but getting the proper amount of sleep (7 plus hours per night) can REALLY move the needle for fat loss. If you’re hitting your numbers regularly, with accuracy, it’s time to look at how you’re spending that macro budget! Think about small changes you can make within your macros to incorporate more vegetables and whole food options. I have no shame in enjoying a guilt-free treat here and there, but eating whole, nutrient dense foods in the RIGHT quantity is where the magic happens. I had to actually scroll to find the egg entry.
