![]() However, we will continue to do this because we are human and we have access to such a convenient source of information. I’m sure you’ve been told not to google your health problems because you’ll find out that you’re dead or perhaps you’re a male who is pregnant. Don’t Leave Your Health in Google’s Hands True hunger (not boredom, sadness, stress, etc.) is meant to be satiated with food (good food) not starved. ![]() It means that your nutrient levels and timing are off, not that you are superior and a weight loss champ, sorry that’s just not the case. I am also continually shocked that people believe hunger (extreme as it may be) is normal when losing weight. It saddens me that people will follow the diet plan in hopes that they too will achieve the success that the models (photoshopped I’m sure) have achieved. Many of these “diet” plans promise weight loss and that you won’t starve. If you are one of those people, please, I beg you, stop. I also found that supposedly over 18,000 people google “1,200 calorie diets” monthly, so that made me super excited (not) that I helped with that number. The results were endless, frightening and downright sad, just sad. The only reason I didn’t? I’m not about to buy a new computer, although for once, this may have completely justified it. And just as a nice little experiment, I decided to google “1,200 calories” and let me tell you, I almost chucked my computer across the room. I have a special place in my heart for anyone recommending the majority of humans to eat 1,200 calories (yes this is sarcasm). Ok, slightly exaggerating on my breakfast calories (but I’m sure on Saturday’s post workout it is darn close to that number) ![]() I don’t know if you know me but 1,200 calories could be my breakfast, so I take direct offense to this number. Heck, many of my clients plug in their information on sites like MyFitnessPal and are told 1,200 calories should be their goal, myself included. So why do I hate 1,200 so dang much?!?!īecause for whatever reason this is the number of calories that many people are told to consume in order to lose weight. ![]() For crying out loud my lacrosse number used to be 13. I am not superstitious nor am I one to think numbers have great meaning. ![]() There is no number I hate more than 1,200. ![]()
