Let’s face it - most of us aren’t fully aware of how much we actually eat. Unless you closely keep track of your intake through a food journal or tracking app, your calorie counting efforts will likely be inaccurate and a waste of time. Because of how complex food psychology and even nutrition science is, chances are you may be eating more than you realize.
Why is our self-tracking so inaccurate? There are a few reasons to explore.
For example, you may not remember the handful of keropok you had at your desk, or the cookie offered to you by your colleague. You may not remember the soft drink you had with lunch, or the packet of candy you ate in the car on the way home. It is easy for these small things to add up, and count towards calories you never even noticed that you had.
Most of us would like to believe that the food we eat is healthier than it really is. Roti canai looks like bread, but it is infused with ghee (oil), which makes its calorie content much higher than a regular slice of bread. Similarly, the curry you pour onto your rice doesn’t just add delicious flavour, it also adds significant calories to your meal. Even soups can be deceptively caloric, especially cream soups or ones with lots of oil floating on top.
If you don’t jot down what you eat almost immediately after eating it, chances are you will struggle to remember details like portion size, what was in the food, cooking style, and so on. And if you go a full day or even multiple days without tracking, it can seem like a monumental challenge to catch up - and it’s easier to just give up.
So, if you’ve been trying to lose weight through calorie counting, but not seeing any results, the reasons above could be why!
