\u201cAre you sure I should be eating this much?\u201d\u2063\u2063
\u2063\u2063
It\u2019s the most common reply I get from someone who has calculated their macros with my free guide or invested in a Personalized Macro Calculation from my team. \u2063\u2063
\u2063\u2063
Yep, you should be eating that much. I am sorry you \u201cfeel\u201d like 2000 calories is too much for you. Or that 2400 calories is more than your boyfriend eats. Or that 2250 calories \u201cscares you a little\u201d. \u2063\u2063
\u2063\u2063\u2063
When you come to me saying that you struggle with:\u2063\u2063
>> hunger – like can\u2019t be trusted with XYZ in the house, hunger\u2063\u2063
>> cravings – intense, predictable, need a fix after dinner cravings\u2063\u2063
>> recovery – need an afternoon nap, tired\u2063\u2063
>> soreness – takes me a while to loosen up, tender to the touch sore\u2063\u2063
>> agitation – snap at my kids grouchy, don\u2019t talk to me till I\u2019ve had a snack grumpy\u2063\u2063
>> constipation – need coffee + water + lots of vegetables + a workout (and nothing less!) to be regular\u2063\u2063
>> gym plateaus – don\u2019t know what giving 100% feels like anymore, going through the motions\u2063\u2063
>> sleep – annoyingly can\u2019t fall asleep or stay asleep \u2063\u2063
>> problematic periods – don\u2019t know what you\u2019re gonna get each cycle \u2063\u2063
>> cold – you wish you could bring your space heater with you\u2063\u2063
\u2063\u2063
You bet I\u2019m gonna tell you to eat more.\u2063\u2063
\u2063\u2063
Ask yourself: are you enduring all those symptoms (and more!) because you fear an arbitrary calorie goal? Would you rather tank your thyroid hormone, shut down your sex hormones, raise your adrenal stress hormones like cortisol because 2000 calories \u201cfeels like\u201d too much for you? \u2063\u2063
\u2063\u2063
Eating more WILL resolve all of those issues AND make for a leaner, stronger body.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
