43 Things

just thought this was interesting... 16 months ago

i read an article today that said to know how many calories you need to maintain your weight:
just take your weight and multiply it by 10, then add your weight to that number.

118×10= 1180+118= 1298..so 1300 calories a day basically if i don’t exercise to maintain this weight…

less than i thought!! lol but i’m glad i know now cuz i was just generalizing and thinking 1500….but it makes sense that it would vary for different body weights.

neways, that’s all, happy friday everyone! :)

Is that the number before doing anything? (Such as just day to day stuff)
Cause if it includes that stuff, it sounds pretty low…

yeah, it’s that number w/o doing anything…if you do exercise you can add more calories to that number for amount you burn off..
