Calorie counting.
Hate it. Ok, maybe that's a bit strong. It just feels like a numbers game I'm not good at. And yet it's simple addition. Why does it feel unnatural and like such a chore?
But I'm doing it anyway and recognize why I need to. My Fitness Pal makes it pretty easy but so much I just estimate and wonder how accurate I am.
I'm not sure what my calorie needs really are for a day. Even though I'm busy with kids and house, I can't exercise much so I've assumed I'm "sedentary". (I do a little resistance training and yoga.) I know deep down that losing is more about controlling what you put in your mouth than being able to burn off the calories, but am I sedentary or lightly active? Maybe I'll see in a week after I weigh in and see where I'm at on the scale. Of course, then I'm off to Florida on vacation...Oh, well, there's always going to be something, right?
