Calculate your daily calorie needs for maintenance, weight loss, or muscle gain based on your activity level and goals.
Use a food diary or app to track your daily calorie intake. This helps you stay accountable and make adjustments as needed.
Protein helps maintain muscle mass during weight loss and keeps you feeling full longer. Aim for 0.8-1g per pound of body weight.
Drink water before meals to help control appetite. Sometimes thirst is mistaken for hunger.
Focus on nutrient-dense foods that provide vitamins and minerals, not just empty calories.
