When dieters are counting calories, they often stop counting if they’re not happy with how the day is going. This is when it’s MOST important to keep counting because it’s critical to prove to yourself that you take accountability for your actions. If you stop counting, you’ll prove to yourself that you let yourself off the hook when things aren’t going well, and you exponentially increase the chances of having more off-track days in the future. Keep counting, no matter what!
