Re: Are you fat?

Somewhat, counting calories focuses more on the calorie count than the actual food quality, so people are more likely to deprive themselves of food because "oh no can't go over my calories count" when you're still in actuality hungry. A food journal should focus more if the food is good for you and how you feel before and after eating, so you can identify if there's any emotional states that make you prone to overeating or if certain foods make you feel like crap.

You probably should keep an eye on portions for a little bit as well, but if you're overweight they're a chance your diet makes you prone to overeating or you may have emotional issues with food. Realistically, calories in calories out isn't sustainable in the long run and adds a lot of stress, when the focus should be eating well.

NTAYRT, but

"Realistically, calories in calories out isn't sustainable in the long run and adds a lot of stress, when the focus should be eating well."

I completely disagree with the anon; it is sustainable in the long run, but you have to think of it as a "lifestyle change", rather than a "I'm going to do this for xxx amount of days, then go back to normal" thing. Plus, "eating well" is hard to keep track of; is eating carrots and hummus as a snack "eating well"? Well, yes, compared to eating, say, oreos, but you can still eat a lot of calories with hummus if you're not keeping track.
