Calories
Needed to Maintain WeightWhat
is the total amount of calories needed to maintain weight?
Studies
have shown that a low calorie diet, around 2000 calories per day, is
optimal for promoting a lean, healthy body.
Of-course, this all depends on body size, activity level, gender and
other factors.
Very few realize that they have a natural weight at
which their body is
designed to function. Your genetics determine this
natural weight and the way that your body uses calories to achieve it.
You are not designed to be overweight or
underweight! You are designed to have a beautiful natural
weight. The only way to achieve and maintain this weight is through the
continuous consumption
of healthy
food.
Focus on eating a diet high in a variety of healthy
foods and one of
two things will happen...
- If you are over your natural weight you will slim
down
- If you are under your natural weight you will gain weight
If you did nothing else except eat the right food you would
not need to
worry about getting the correct amount of calories, your body
would take care of it.
