1. Make a list of EVERYTHING you ate yesterday.
2. Next, visit Calorie Lab or Calorie Counter and mark the number of calories each food you ate contains. Your list should look something like this:
Apple- 55 Calories
Egg sandwich- 466
Fruit punch- 260
3. Now, add all your calories together. Write down your total.
4. If you’re a girl, subtract 1850 calories from your total. If you’re a boy, subtract 2200 calories from your total. This tells you how many EXTRA calories you are eating each day. For example, if I ate 3000 calories and I’m a boy, my formula would be 3000 – 2200 = 800 Extra Calories.
5. Finally, visit Calorie Control. Choose an exercise and find out how long you’d need to do it for to burn your extra calories (in my case, how long to burn 800 extra calories).
