How many calories should I intake and burn to lose weight?
Wednesday, October 7th, 2009Im 24 years old, 6 feet tall, 240 pounds. College has turned me into a lathargic fatso. After research I am still unsure on the amount of calories to burn and the amount to intake in order for me to lose some weight. My target for right now is to get to 220.
I recently purchased a bicycle to ride to class and I am swimming three times a week. I swim for aproximately 30 minutes each day and that will eventually increase. I ride my bike around campus anwhere from 40 min to 1 hr 20 min, but it is not continuous, class etc.. Ive started charting my calorie intake and have it about 1500 - 1700. Is this accurate and enough exercise or is there something I should adjust? I also need some explanation on if you eat 1500 calories and burn 500 is that healthy and all that sort of stuff.
