Are you willing to lose some weight, but you think
that your diet plan is actually not working? Don’t worry; Calorie Counting will
surely make it easier for you to lose those extra pounds during your diet. The
mechanism of Calorie Counting is very easy.
If you are willing to lose weight,
you must eat less food than what your body actually needs in order to burn
energy and repair cells. This is because if you eat excess food, it may get
stored as fat. But if you are counting calories, you can allow yourself to lose
some weight along with fulfilling the need of your nutritional requirements. It
is very important that you know the calorie content of whatever food you are
eating.
The table given below would help you determine how
many calories are present in fats, proteins, carbohydrates and in alcohol:
Proteins- 4 Calories per gram
Fats- 9 Calories per gram
Carbohydrates- 4 Calories per gram
Alcohol- 7 Calories per gram
Just like the list given above, you need to know the
calorie of everything you consume. Most these nutritious foods consist of a
very complex mixture of these basic components, so it is very important that
you look for the nutrient chart which comes with almost with every food you
consume.

Now comes the Calorie Counting part. You must be
wondering how many grams of food you should eat and what is the right amount of
Calories that should go inside your body?
In general, to maintain a weight of 145 pounds, you
must eat at least 1,884 calories.
Now, 15% of 1,884 = 282 calories.
This means if you reduce 282 calories per day, then
you will be able to reduce only 1 pound every 12days or 2 pounds in a month, in
the beginning. Slowly as your body weight would decrease, the rate of weight
loss of your body would also decrease.
Note: Just walking for half an hour reduces 150
calories.
You can seek
information about minerals, calories, and fatty acids, fiber and vitamins, etc
from the USDA National Nutrient Database. It is very good and trusted resource
if you wish to track your calorie data manually. But one thing which you should
keep in your mind is, while counting calories and going on diet is that you
should keep a proper record of what amount o f food you are eating; else you
will end up in acquiring Eating Disorders.
Now you might be wondering, what is an Eating
Disorder?

So to tell you all, Eating Disorder is a condition
which is defined by abnormal eating habits. It may be either due to excessive
food intake or insufficient consumption of right food. Symptoms of Eating
disorders may include self-induce vomiting, usage of diuretics, enemas and
laxatives. Even if you have an extreme food restriction then you may get
obsessed with losing weight and you may stop eating food.
No wonder weight management is very important, but
it should not be done on the risk of your health. It is very important to eat
healthy and in appropriate amount and time. It may be possible that when you
start following any diet plans and do Calorie Counting, you may feel hungrier.
But that is just a part of it. Few weeks later, you will become habitual of
following the chart and count calories of whatever you will eat.
One thing more, just by reducing the amount of
calories intake from your meal would surely help in your weight loss but if you
work-out daily for just half an hour, you will be able to reap more benefits
from your new regime.
