Title: Weight Loss Someone told me at work there are charts and tables that you can find on the Web to calculate how many calories you should intake daily based upon how much exercise you do daily. I am starting on walking at least 4 times a week. Each walk I am starting at 2 miles. I am 5" 11" and weigh at 218 lbs. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Name: Anthony Whiteman Date: Apr. 23rd, 1999 Title: Re: Weight Loss As a man: At 220 40 is your waist your waist should be 33 the difference is 7 inches 7 multiplied by 7 (7 is the amount of pounds per inch you will need to lose to reach the goal. Doesnt matter if you have 3 or 5 or 10 inches to lose. THe number to multiply by is 7) So: 50 pounds of fat 220 minus 50 is 170 170 divided by 10 = 17 (always divided by 10) 170 multiplied by 17 = 2890 calories you need daily. Each week thoughyou will add to the diet thie following calories determined in the following manner as long as you continue to lose fat. You do this to maintain new muscle and not fall flat in your progress. 2890 divided by 6 = 480 approx 480 divided by 6 again = 80 so add 80 calories every other week as long as you continue to progress. If you hit a wall, stay there til you make progress then add again. If it fails it is only because you are combining your foods wrong. women multiply by 5 not 7, thats the only difference Name: Don Lemmon, board moderator, Planet of the Apes fa Date: Apr. 24th, 1999 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | |
