Medical weight loss expert Chen Wei today
The correct weight loss should be to reduce fat in adipose tissue, and the data show that losing a kilogram of fat generally requires about 7,000-10,000 kcal of energy.
If the daily energy intake is reduced by 500 kcal, it takes 1 kg for 14 days; If you reduce your daily energy intake by 1,000 kcal, you will need to lose 1 kg in 7 days.
If you want to achieve the same goal by increasing your activity, you need to exercise at least 1 hour a day, which can consume about 500 kcal.
The basic formula for energy consumption
Whether it is through the way of losing weight through exercise, or the way of losing weight through diet, follow such a rule:
Energy consumed by the human body = basic energy required for the body's basal metabolism + energy required for physical activity + energy required to digest food.
The most critical factor in losing one kilogram
In the energy consumption of the human body, the most important is the human body's basic metabolism, and the human body's basic metabolism is relatively stable at a certain age.
In the above formula: the three parts after the equal sign consume energy, and the most autonomous control of the change is the "energy required for physical activity". So we need to increase the amount of physical activity to improve the basal metabolism to improve the weight loss effect.
