Mary asks…

do i factor in calories burned from exercise into my daily caloric intake to lose weight?

i calculated from a weight loss calculator online that to maintain my current weight i should consume no more than 1700 calories a day and subtract 500 calories a day from that amount to lose about a pound a week. so i try to eat no more than 1200 calories a day. if i exercise and burn aprox. 200 calories does that mean i can eat 1400 calories a day and still lose the same amount of weight?

Linda asks…

Anyone knows a good weight loss web site with calorie counter and bmi calculator?

It should have calorie information about foods and support groups. Of course, I’d rather try a free one… thanks!

weight loss cardiff answers:

Have you tried www.projectweightloss.com? It’s a great site, and it’s free. It’s got menu and workout planners, and an integrated calorie calculator that lets you calculate how many calories you eat, and then how many you burn when you work out. Plus, it’s got really nice graphs – I’ve been using it for a couple of months and I love it!

Laura asks…

If I eat normally, how many calories should i burn per week to lose weight?

Preferably like.. 3-5 pounds in one month? Also, i eat very irregularly, sometimes I don’t have that much to eat all day and sometimes I have a lot. So, basically, if i didn’t eat completely healthily and didn’t lower the amount i eat, how many calories per week should i burn through exercise to lose 3-5 pounds in one month?

weight loss cardiff answers:

3500 calories = 1 pound

Richard asks…

I lose about 500 calories running 5 times a week.How much weight could I lose in that week?

I don’t know how calories work when trying to lose weight.Can anyone please help me on how calories work? =]
I don’t own a scale and unfortunately the gym I go to also does not own a scale.I know I lose about 500 calories in one day and run/walk about 2 1/2 miles a day.I am losing about 500 calories doing this.How much weight could I lose in a week doing this?

weight loss cardiff answers:

1-3 pounds. 500 calories burned from exercise, plus all the calories you burn doing other activities, probably adds up to around 2000-2200. You need to burn 3500 calories to lose one pound. Your BMR is most likely around 1400, so burning a total of 2200 calories a day. Net burn is 800 calories a day times 7 days a week=5600. If you eat healthy, around 1200-1400 calories a day, closer to 1200, you could lose up to 3 pounds in a week.

Chris asks…

How many calories should you burn in a week to lose weight?

I can go to the gym four times a week for an hour and a half, I’ve been able to burn 700 to 800 calories per session, Is that too much, too little? How much should i burn per session or in a week. Im 15 if that matters and 189 pounds and tryin to get healthier

weight loss cardiff answers:

How do you know you’re burning 7-800? Let’s assume that amount IS accurate–If you can measure your expenditure that accurately, then surely you can measure how many cals you’re eating, ’cause most foods these days have energy content printed on the package, or you can look it up on the web. Look up on Google or someplace what are 1) the energy requirements per day for a growing teenager, 2) what the resting energy expenditure is per day for someone like you, multiply this by 7 (7 days per week), then add the total to what you expend per week when you work out. That sum is your weekly energy expenditure. If you want to lose weight, eat fewer calories than you’re burning.
