Dr Shannon Ritchey recalls compulsive calorie-burn tracking before stopping and feeling better

What was said

"I remember if I didn't burn enough calories in my workout, I would literally do jumping jacks in my apartment at the end of the day to try to hit that calorie goal. And now I don't even track any of that. And I see so much better results."

Speaking about her own health journey, Dr Shannon Ritchey says she became fixated on calorie-burn targets, including doing extra exercise at home to meet a goal shown on her fitness watch. She says she later stopped tracking those numbers and felt her results and mindset improved.
