Why Food Tracking Isn’t About Being “Perfect”

Savvy Bites: Real nutrition tips for real life

Think you’re eating “pretty healthy”? You might be — but most of us don’t have a clear picture until we see it.

We forget the little things — bites while cooking, extra cream in coffee, or skipping meals entirely. That’s not a willpower issue. It’s just how memory works.

✅ That’s why I often encourage short-term tracking — not as a diet tool, but as an awareness tool.

A few days of paying attention can show you patterns you’d never notice otherwise:

• Am I skipping meals without realizing it?

• Am I actually eating enough protein?

• Why do I crash every afternoon?

It’s not about perfection. It’s about clarity — and awareness is always the first step toward change.
