When you eat too few calories, in other words, you have no energy, you crave “bad” foods, and you turn everything you eat into fat. I don’t have to tell you that this is a recipe for weight gain, not weight loss, do I? Nobody can operate under these conditions. Eventually you will slip up and eat everything in sight. Even stuff you don’t really like. Then you will get discouraged at your lack of will-power and give up. This is what not to do. But we aren’t here to talk about how to fail. We’re here to talk about how to win.
What to Do if You Want to Lose Weight
Figure out how many calories you need to eat to survive. There is a mathematical formula that will help you figure out how much you need to eat to live. If you dip below this number you will enter starvation mode. Never, ever go below this number. Here is how to figure it out:
Calculate your BMR
BMR stands for Basal Metabolic Rate. It means the amount of calories you expend to run your body systems and lay in your bed breathing. Use the following equations to figure out your BMR:
Men: 66 + (13.7 x Weight in Kg) + (5 x height in cm) – (6.8 x age in years)
Women: 665 + (9.6 x wt in Kg) + (1.8 x ht in cm) – (4.7 x age in years)
Multiply your height in inches by 2.54 to get centimeters
Divide your weight in pounds by 2.2 to get Kg
