I\u20ac\u2122ll be using terms like weight loss and lose weight, but I really mean \u20ac\u0153fat loss\u20ac\u009d and \u20ac\u0153losing fat.\u20ac\u009d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>To put it very simply, you need to create a \u20ac\u0153calorie deficit\u20ac\u009d to lose weight. What that means is, you want to eat less calories than your body burns in a day.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if your body burns 2000 calories a day but you eat only 1700 calories a day, you create a calorie deficit of 300 calories a day and you\u20ac\u2122ll lose weight. If your body burns 2000 calories a day and you eat 2300 calories a day, you\u20ac\u2122re creating a caloriesurplus\u00a0of 300 calories, and you\u20ac\u2122ll end up gaining weight over time.<\/p>\n<p>And also keep in mind this general rule of thumb:\u00a0ladies, don\u20ac\u2122t go below 1200 calories and, guys, don\u20ac\u2122t go below 1800 calories a day.\u00a0Your body burns up most of its daily calories just by keeping your body alive \u20ac\u201d even while you\u20ac\u2122re asleep&#8221; &#8211;\u00a0http:\/\/www.fitwatch.com\/weight-loss\/how-to-count-calories-to-lose-weight-the-basic-blueprint-361.html<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nHow do you count calories?<\/p>\n<p>It is easy to count calories (kcal). In most foods it says on the packaging how many calories it contains in 100 grams.\u00a0Buy a food scale if you want a exakt number of calories.<\/p>\n<p>Look what the food weights and how many calories it is in 100 gram and then its easy to count how many calories there are in it. I use the app &#8221;ShapeUp&#8221; at my iPhone to count my calories. You can just searh on any food you like and write how many grams you had of it and the app counts out how many calories you just had.
