I don't believe in counting calories. Since our bodies are not lab instruments (and our kitchens are not laboratories), counting calories is an inexact science. On top of that, we are less efficient in digesting some foods than others. For example, compare 100 calories of raw apple to 100 calories of applesauce. We will use more of the calories from the applesauce as some of the calories from the raw apple pass through our digestive system along with the fiber.
So, why bother counting calories? Theoretically, if we eat only healthy, minimally processed, nutrient dense foods we would naturally stop eating when we'd had enough.
But, reality bites. I do not live in a perfect world. I am surrounded by overly processed unhealthy food and my appetite is more driven by emotional needs rather than nutritional needs.
Therefore, counting calories is a mechanism I have for helping put order in my world. I can use tangible numbers to override my emotions and plot my course. Until something better comes along I will continue to do this.
