Isn't it a great feeling when you have extra calories at the end of the night that you can take to your kitchen and go shopping, without feeling guilty?

always been programed to think eating clean all the time its a psychological thing from when I first started getting into a lifting a few years ago and being afraid you wont get to the conditioning you want on stage. All those b.s. articles I used to read about earting a billion times a day and only eatinch chicken broccoli and sweet potatos. Which does actually work but at what cost. Though I'm liking this method counting is definately the way to go.
Edit on another note do you guys count vegetables calories and carbs in your calories/macros?

Just set aside like 200 odd calories for general veg (carrots peas parsnips etc) if you tend to eat it alot & you'll be covered.
Other veg that are relatively high calorie like nuts, potatoes & beans/lentils i most certainly count as it clocks up to ~700 cals+.
Carbs personally i don't count, I tend to eat a largely vegetarian diet & so most of my diet is rich in carbohydrates. It is usually fats i'm more on the watch for due to me not using cooking oils regularly & hating avocados.

by far the best is having ~25g fats. Peanut butter tastes good with anything.
