How to Stop Overthinking Your Nutrition and Comparing Your Results
Thu Feb 05 2026
In today's episode, I'm answering a question straight from my Instagram DMs about how to track food without overthinking, quiet food noise, and stop comparing your progress to everyone else's. I share practical strategies for simplifying tracking, including what actually matters to log, when estimating is more than good enough, and why aiming for ranges, not perfection, is key for consistency and results.
We also talk about comparison, why fast "results" are often just water weight, and how losing trust in a science-backed approach can stall progress. I break down what truly drives fat loss, why your journey will never look like someone else's, and how staying focused on proven fundamentals makes results inevitable over time.
