How much calorie intake is optimal for weight loss?

Many people feel that their figure is not good enough, that they are still fat, and take measures to lose weight. Losing weight is a painful thing. You dare not eat what you want to eat, and you cannot drink what you want to drink. Some people diet excessively, which causes great harm to the stomach and intestines, and the necessary energy cannot be met, causing great harm to the body. When losing weight, how many calories should you consume every day? Today I will tell you.

How can you plan the amount of calories you need to consume every day during your weight loss period so that you can lose weight healthily and efficiently? First, you can refer to your ideal weight and set a target weight to decide how much weight you want to lose; then, based on the calorie value of 7,700 calories required to lose every kilogram of body weight, calculate the total calorie reduction you must give up to reach your target weight; next, use losing 0.5-1 kilogram per week as a standard to determine a reasonable weight loss period, and then divide the total calorie reduction you must give up by the number of days to get the calorie reduction you must give up every day; finally, subtract the calorie reduction you must give up every day from the calorie requirement you mentioned above, and that is the calorie reduction you must give up every day during the weight loss period.

Most women can lose weight by controlling their daily calorie intake to less than 1,500 calories (men can increase it by 300 calories). At the same time, the minimum calorie intake should not be less than 1200 calories.

A long-term low-calorie diet will cause the body to activate a natural defense mechanism and reduce the body's basal metabolic rate because the calories do not meet the basic needs of human physiological activities. This will slow down the body's basic physiological activities and reduce the calories consumed. Therefore, many people who diet to lose weight will find that even if they eat very little, it becomes increasingly difficult to lose weight!

During the weight loss period, you should also pay attention to your diet every day and develop a regular routine. You can change the types of meals frequently, but you must ensure a combination of meat and vegetables to ensure comprehensive nutrition. Many female friends who are trying to lose weight have gastrointestinal problems due to excessive dieting, and some even suffer from anorexia. These are all very bad for the body, and the minimum calorie intake standard required by the human body must be met.
