I'm not a diet doctor. I rely on counting calories. The exact precise approximate number of calories you and I need each day, to keep our bodies at a cozy 98.6 Fahrenheit. Most of our daily caloric requirement goes for temperature maintenance, repair and other biologic houskeeping. It's easier to cut back input.
Calories are hard facts.
Calories do coun t but counting calories was a chore. And the fact is we gain weight when we take in more calories than we put out. And we lose weight we put out more than we take in . That's five Big Macs. Certain readily diagnosed conditions such as low thyroid make it harder to lose weight because they lower or other- wise alter body metabolism.
