You
have to burn at least 3500 calories to lose 1 pound of weight. It may seem a tough
task but not at all. You can do this in a single day if you follow the step by
step process.
There
are four steps to do these. I mention these below:
- · Calculate your BMR
- · Calculate your activity level
- · Keep track of calories you take in a day
- · Take your decision
BMR
stands for Basal Metabolic Rate. It detects the amounts of calories you need to
perform your daily bodily functions. Your body needs this amount of foods in a
single day.
You do
a lot of exercise in a day in a way of sitting, standing, gossiping, lifting
weight etc. Calculate your daily activities and figure out how many calories
you burn in that day. You can use a calorie calculator to figure out the
calorie you have lost.
In
the third step, keep track of calories you take each day. Do this for at least
seven days. Sum them and then average the result.
There
is an equation that will help you to determine to eat more or less.
Your proper food
intake = Your BMR + your activity calories – your food calories
If you
take more food than the ideal amount, you will gain weight. This calculator
helps you to determine the amount you need to take each day and how much
calories you should burn in a single day.
