Reality check

Had kind of a horrifying realization recently. It only takes an extra 250 calories over maintenance per day to gain 2 lbs per month. Innocent enough if it’s just one month but that adds up to 24lbs per year. Logically I knew it didn’t take much to gain weight but that’s literally a Starbucks lattes worth of calories to put it in perspective. This is why lifestyle adjustments are so important to actually keeping the weight you lose off. Don’t think I’ll ever stop tracking calories even at maintenance post goal weight now
