Counting Macros is like a daily puzzle where you get to play with what you will eat that may to fuel your body and goals! And some people LOVE puzzles while others don’t! I LOVE puzzles which is why I coach Macros and share all of my experiences, as well as create Meal Ideas based on an Individuals Macros so that they don’t have to do that puzzle themselves😅😉
BUT ultimately, learning how to fuel your body yourself will make it easier for you to get results you can keep! And it’s important to know the more you practice the EASIER hitting your Macros gets!
One of the biggest learning curves with Macros is how to fill up a certain Macronutrient after you’ve already started building a meal.
You could have a dinner with chicken, veggies, and potato, but realize you’re really low on fat. OR you could be maybe having quick frozen dinner that’s pretty low on protein. OR you could be having a salad and realize you should probably add in some carbs🤔
Below I’ve listed EASY ways to add in certain types of foods so that you can hit your Macros spot on! Most examples are showing a type of Protein, Carb, or Fat that are high in that Macronutrient and very low in the others, so that you can add in Protein, Carbs, or Fats depending on what you need without going way over on the other Macros.
