Fresh Fruit And Vegetables – Calorie Counting For Good Health

How Many Calories Should I Eat everyday?

…………….

…………….

BMR (basal metabolic rate) formula:

Male adults
66.5 + (13.75 x kg body weight) + (5.003 x height in cm) – (6.755 x age) = BMR
66 + ( 6.23 x pounds body weight) + ( 12.7 x height in inches ) – ( 6.76 x age) = BMR
Female adults
55.1 + (9.563 x kg body weight) + (1.850 x height in cm) – (4.676 x age) = BMR
65.5 + (4.35 x pounds body weight) + (4.7 x height in inches) – (4.7 x age) = BMR

Now please get that crazy glassy eyed look off your face and do what I did. Use the on-line calculator that can be found at: Use our BMR calculator

The calorie count provided by this calculator is the Maximum daily calorie intake to maintain your current weight.

To loose weight you Must increase your daily activities and at the same time intake fewer calories everyday.

Portion Size does matter. In 1990 the average cheeseburger in the USA had 320 calories, compared that to the cheeseburgers served today can be over 600 calories.

Pay extra close attention to both the calories per serving and the serving size. For an example a muffins calories is listed as 150 calories per-serving. However that same muffin is Not 1 but 2 servings, meaning if you consume the entire muffin you will be getting 300 calories in total!
