Don’t Count It
In the first article I counted how much is 20% when you eat 5 meals every day. But don’t do it like this. It was just an estimate and an example. It also depends on the amount, too. But stop counting calories or how much you eat. Why would you do that? When you want to lose weight (not because you want to be skinny but you need to lose weight) you can manage your goals in other ways than counting everything. Your life isn’t about numbers. Live your life.
Btw: don’t count how many percent of unhealthy you eat. It can be once 40% a week and then 10%. Follow your feeling and mood
