Simple Fat Loss Math – 4 minutes will change your perspective
Have you heard the expression “you can’t out-train a poor diet” or “exercise is a terrible strategy for weight loss”? It’s true, especially if you have no idea how many calories you consume in a day.
It’s simple math:
– Weigh yourself.
– Track calories for at least one week (the longer, the better) using a free app like FatSecret.
– Record all food and drink.
– Calculate your daily average.
– Weigh yourself again.
Here’s what the results mean:
If your weight went up, you are eating too much.
If your weight went down, you are in a caloric deficit, consuming fewer calories than you’re burning.
If your weight stayed the same, you found your “Maintenance RDI” or “Required Daily Intake.”
This is a crucial number, representing how much you can eat without gaining or losing weight.
Mine is around 2200 calories a day.
This is straightforward mathematics for anyone aiming to lose fat – it reveals the truth.
The truth is this: Calories matter. If you regularly consume more calories than your body requires, you’ll gain weight. If you consistently overconsume, the weight gain can be significant.
I hope this simple tip can set you on the right path. Feel free to reach out if you need coaching to get past this.
