Logging is the Key to Accountability

I had a client this morning ask why he wasn't losing weight even though he is watching his diet and exercising.

My response was, "How many calories have you been eating?"

He didn't know.  Calories are the basis of our energy balance.  It will be very difficult to know what the answer is to your weight loss question without knowing the details of your consumption and expenditure.  Most mainstream, balanced diet programs use some sort of accountable system.  Whether it is and points system or even the Richard Simmons "Deal-a-Meal", some accounting for your eating will be key to understanding your success or more importantly your failure to loss weight.

There is a time investment, but the information is crucial.  You can do it.  208.0
