In every diet and for every weight loss goal there are three major macronutrients that affect how (and yes, if) we reach our goals. The building blocks of every diet are fats, carbs, and proteins. Many people find counting macros to be helpful in building flexible and sustainable diets, without restrictive unhealthy behaviors. So what are these macros? Why do they matter for health and weight loss, and does the type of macros really matter?
“Following macros” or “counting macros” refers to eating a certain amount of these types of foods each day. Your numbers should be unique to YOU. No one should have the same macros as you. A few of the things I take into account when determining YOUR specific macros are: age, height, weight, body type, activity, fitness goals, current routine and more.
Total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) is then determined and from there you consume calories in deficit if you want to lose and in surplus if you want to gain. The calories are broken down into ratios (determined by a coach) and you eat a certain percentage of carbs, protein, and fat a day.
You get to track your food in an app like @Myfitnesspal. These apps keep a running total of the amount of calories you consume along with the macro breakdown. So, by the end of day your goal is to eat foods that meet your macros!
The macros may need to be fine-tuned to dial in on goals. That is why it can be helpful to have a coach give recommendations if not getting results you want. I'm here to help you find the perfect macro count for your lifestyle & goals!
