On his Instagram account, which has 119,000 followers, Tomlinson regularly places different food items side by side in order to compare the calorie content of each. "One of my main aims is to make people realise that consuming nutritious food is great, but it doesn't automatically mean you will lose weight unless you're in an overall calorie deficit." “If fat loss or reducing sugar intake is your aim, you can consume a greater volume of food per calories when the fruit is fresh. “Consuming more food and less calories is a logical idea.” As Tomlinson points out, reducing your calorie intake isn’t necessarily about limiting the amount of food that you’re eating.
