Not such a bad thing, in terms of nutrition.
I recently decided to get my shit together and finally get rid of the extra 20 lbs I’ve been carrying around for the last several months. That’ll make me 10 lbs lighter than I was all last season, and put me at an acceptable level of bodyfat. As they say, ounces are lost at the gym, and pounds are lost in the kitchen, so enter the food scale.
More than proper portion sizing, I’m using this to ensure the accuracy of my calorie tracking. I’m aiming for a significant and precise calorie deficit every day, and the only way to properly ensure that is to track every single thing that goes into my mouth. So until I get to go back to maintaining (some time in early June, probably), this thing is going to be present for nearly every meal.
