I always consider myself a clean eater, for the most part and also work my ass off in the gym. I would like to think I am growing but not leaning out the way I want to.
I finally decided to download one of those food intake trackers...Spark People was my choice..it was free in the Android Store as I am sure you can get it on Itunes as well.
Boy was I thrown for a loop. Some days I was barely eating 1500 calories, mind you I never got hungry and other days would eat 2000-2500....good intake right!? But certain days I was eating 70%+ of carbs.....daaamn!
I am now on a higher protein, medium carb and lower fat diet, eating very clean but do splurge on a Saturday or Sunday. Gotta have my pizza and Ice Cream.
Yes inputting data and weighing food may be cumbersome but give it a try, you may be surprised by what you see and learn.
