Counting Calories

I've been reading some health and fitness blogs, and while really take to the advice regarding exercise, I have a hard time with many of the things said about diet.  The reason is that they almost always mention something about the amount of calories that should be consumed.  Maybe they tell you not to exceed 2,000 calories a day, or that a homemade healthy dinner recipe only has 500 calories.  These numbers scare me, and here's why.

I understand that for some people, counting calories is a useful tool for losing or maintaining weight.  But it doesn't work for everybody, and I was one of those people.

I'm going to have to make this again while it's still appropriate.
