If not, allow us to explain.    👩‍🎓 PART 1 of 2 - Calorie Burn    Your body burns calories every day in one of four ways, otherwise known as your metabolism or Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE):     1️⃣ Basal metabolic rate (BMR for short)   The number of calories needed for your body to function; lungs to work, heart to pump, brain to think etc. This number is dependent on a few factors like your weight, height, age and sex.    2️⃣ Non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT for short)    The number of calories your body needs for any unplanned movement like walking around the house and even tasks like brushing your teeth and typing require calories.    3️⃣ Exercise activity thermogenesis (EAT for short)   The number of calories your body needs for planned exercise such as running, lifting weights and swimming.     4️⃣ Thermic effect of food (TEoF for short)  Your digestive system needs energy to process the foods you eat. Foods higher in protein need more calories in the digestive process.    👩‍🎓 Part 2 of 2 into the explanation of a calorie deficit:    The above is how your body BURNS or expends calories. The foods and drinks we eat on a daily basis are our calorie INTAKE.     👇 How a calorie deficit works 👇    ⚖️ If you eat the same amount of calories as your body burns you will maintain your weight.    ⬆️ If you eat more calories than your body burns you will gain weight.    ⬇️ If you eat fewer calories than your body burns you will lose weight because this will put you in a calorie deficit.    💯 We recommend a calorie deficit of around 500 calories a day for most people.    🥄 We also advocate for tracking your calorie consumption accurately using kitchen scales/measuring spoons and inputting these into a calorie calculator like MyFitnessPal.
