Have you ever tried to lose weight as a way to good health and life?
Ever counted calories or kicked carbohydrates out of your diet altogether? It turns out you weren?t doing yourself any favors.
Watch and learn as registered dietician Ashely Koff debunks those and other myths about food and nutrition.(Video Rating: 4 / 5).
Calories are the measurement of energy. We get this energy from foods we consume which is an essential part in the processes our organ systems carry out. The body needs calories because we need energy. However, we should be careful on the amount of our calorie intake because too much calories, when not burned, may lead to weight gain.
Determine your Basal Metabolic Rate, a formula to determine the approximate number of calories a person burns in a day.
Women use the following formula: 655 plus (4.35 x weight in pounds) plus (4.7 x height in inches) minus (4.7 x age in years). The formula for men is: 66 plus (6.23 x weight in pounds) plus (12.7 x height in inches) minus (6.8 x age in years).
Calculate your activity level by using the Harris Benedict Equation. If you are sedentary, multiply your BMR by 1.2. If you are lightly active, multiply it by 1.375. If you are moderately active, multiply it by 1.55. If you are very active, multiply it by 1.725. If you are extremely active, multiply it by 1.9.
So a multi-shot intake of 300/400 calories per potions ( about 3 or 4 times) in a day would trick the body not to conserve sugar/fat and you will start losing weight .
Good Health tip : the diet question
You do not have to go on a diet to lose weight. There are some easy ways to cut calories out of a meal. By following these tips you may cut out hundreds of fat grams and calories per day without even noticing the difference: example
- Instead of sugar, substitute a no-calorie sweetener.
- Instead of using creamer, try nonfat milk in your coffee.
The ideal number of calories needed to lose weight depends upon many things. These things include age, sex, weight and lifestyle. One of the most important things involved with losing weight is awareness of calorie values, because many foods and drinks are deceiving when it comes to this matter.
Once you have an ideal weight in mind and you?ve calculated your BMR, you?re ready to start adjusting your daily caloric intake and output to meet your weight-loss goal. This may be one of the most frustrating aspects of any weight-loss program, but it is worth it and, in time, you will learn some of these numbers.
Most packaged foods have nutrition labels so this is easy.
A sample healthy caloric intake would include 400 calories at breakfast, a 100-calorie snack, 300 calories for lunch, 400 calories for dinner and another 100-calorie snack.
Remember: 45 to 65 percent of calories should come from carbohydrates,10 to 35 percent of calories need to be from protein, and 20 to 35 percent should be from fat (with only 7 percent of those calories from saturated fat ).
