    One little question: after losing weight when should I adjust my calorie intake? Once a month or more often?

    • @BrendanTietz
      @BrendanTietz  9 років тому +9

      Hey bettina, my next video of part 2 explains it but basically just adjust once you've stalled for about 2-4 weeks. Give it some time. Average out your weekly weigh ins and take measurements. When it looks like you've stalled, drop calories by 200-300 give or take and or up cardio.

    I use “Lose It”, which is a calorie tracker. I’m a free member, so I haven’t subscribed to the app, but I love the amount of functions it has as a free member. It has this pie chart, which shows macronutrients, but as much as I want to... I don’t really understand it. Some people talk about macros and calories as if tracking them both are two different concepts, which I’m sure it is, however I’m just not entirely sure what that means. I hope watching this, helps 💖💖💖
