Default A New View On Calorie Counting

It's hard for me to agree with this, because I really believe in calorie counting, but he is amazing and has so much to say on what the FDA is doing to our foods.

Watch some of his videos, he is amazing! This guy talks about whole organic foods.

Yeah... well, he has a 30 second message that he takes 6 minutes to deliver. Good ideas, though--I agree that nutrients are very important, especially when losing weight. On the other hand, that man (whose background we don't really know) doesn't look like he has ever been obese, although sometimes it's hard to tell. So for him, this could all be a theoretical discussion.

Tracking calories AND nutrients with my FitDay has worked for me--I don't eat 100 calorie packs of anything!

I agree with alot of what he says...but disagree that counting calories is wrong.I think eating healthy real food is what makes counting calories a good way to diet. I use fitday to track my protiens carb and fat. I think it all goes together.I dont think i could loose if i ate a bunch of junk food even if my calories were right. I think its alot of common sense.
