She showed a glimpse of her before-and-after weight loss body and also many recent meals and said, “If you want to look lean, don’t eat less food; eat less calories. Knowing the difference will change your life.” 
In her long caption, Leana explained, “When people talk about losing fat, they tend to say eat less. Less what? Food or calories? Because there is literally a LIFE-CHANGING difference between both.”

Leana added, “It sounds simple, but if you want to have control over your weight you have to understand that not all foods are equal in calories. You could eat a large volume of low-calorie foods (like vegetables) and feel full, while still maintaining a calorie deficit because the total calories are low. You could eat a lot of carbs and still lose fat. It’s about how you manage your calories. So, the goal isn’t to eat less food, but rather to make calorie-smart choices that let you feel satisfied without overshooting your calorie needs.”
If you’re looking to lose weight and get in shape, a calorie deficit is key. A calorie deficit is when a person consumes less calories than they burn. Do remember: A person’s individual health and circumstances will affect their calorie needs.
