Do I need to count or restrict calories?

No, calorie counting or restriction isn't necessary to achieve your health and fitness goals. In fact, it can sometimes do more harm than good if not done correctly.

Instead of worrying about restricting your calories or counting them, focus on eating a balanced diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats.

Try adding in exercises that you enjoy doing and make sure to take breaks from your routine if you start to feel overwhelmed.

This will help you find a sustainable path to achieving your goals without the need for calorie counting or restriction.
