We provide an in-depth look at how to count macros for weight loss. We’ll tackle why counting macros is an effective way to lose weight, suggestions for getting started if you’re new to counting macros, how to calculate macros for weight loss, how to lose weight without negatively impacting your performance or recovery, and how to think about macro tracking (or not macro tracking) long-term.

We have created the WAG Holiday Nutrition Guide—to help you have a fantastic season, while still staying healthy.

A diet break may seem counterintuitive - why would you need a diet break when you still have weight loss goals to achieve? Does taking a diet break reverse all of the progress you made?

Who doesn’t love saving money, buying in bulk and bringing tons of macro-friendly Costco foods home to help you hit your macros?

MacrosFirst is our favorite app for counting macros over here at Working Against Gravity! Because it is the macro tracking app we recommend to our members, we created a big list of MacrosFirst tutorials to make the tracking process as quick and easy as possible.

Should I weigh my food before cooking? Does frozen food weigh more? How important is it to hit your macros anyway? If you have asked yourself these questions, or maybe typed them into Google (guilty!), you are not alone. It can be hard enough to decide what to make for dinner for the week, let alone knowing when or how to weigh it!

When it comes to weighing & tracking food, not all clients will be comfortable with it. Here are some alternative nutrition strategies for all personalities.

Stop using the excuse of being busy! It's time to stand up for yourself and your health and make a decision to be fussy about your nutrition!

If you are unable to track your food for some reason, that’s okay. Part of the journey of working with a nutrition coach is learning valuable skills that go beyond just entering your food into an app and attempting to hit your target macros.

We often get asked why we don’t write meal plans, but we think once you see how straightforward it can be with a bit of practice, you’ll be glad you did it yourself!

Sometimes we know the macros of a particular food item and it would be so much faster to just manually add the macros instead of having to look up an entry in the MyFitnessPal database.

Planning ahead is key to success in many situations, whether it be training, traveling, nutrition, work or simply life in general.
