Hey friends, welcome back to the Sustainable Weight Loss for Women Over 40 podcast! In today’s episode, we’re diving into the often dreaded topic of tracking your food.
I know, I know—it sounds overwhelming and tedious, but stick with me! I’m here to break down why tracking is important, especially for sustainable fat loss, and how it can be your best tool for success.
We’ll first explore the big question: do you even need to track to lose weight? Spoiler alert: it’s not about being glued to your phone or weighing every single bite, but tracking does give you the knowledge and insight to make real, lasting progress.

Here’s what we cover:

• The science behind fat loss and why a calorie deficit is king.
• How mainstream diets like Weight Watchers, keto, and Noom all revolve around this concept, even if they don't say it outright.
• Why tracking macros (carbs, fat, protein) gives you invaluable information that sticks with you for life.
• Real-life examples of how different diets create calorie deficits without telling you—and why it matters to understand what you’re eating.
• How to make tracking easier with practical tips on using apps like MyFitnessPal to streamline the process.

By the end of the episode, you’ll feel more empowered to start tracking and use it as a tool, not a burden. Whether you’re new to this or have been on the diet rollercoaster, tracking can help you take control and get the results you want.

Until next time, my friends—be resilient!
