Eating Healthy But Not Losing Weight? Learn All About Calorie Deficit With Nutritionist Apurva Agarwal

If you have tried weight loss methods, you know that monitoring and controlling calories is one of the finest ways for a person to lose weight. We need to consume specific number of calories as per our body requirements to maintain healthy weight.

What is Calorie Deficit?

The word "Calorie Deficit" means when we consumer lesser calories than our body requires. This will eventually result in weight loss as the body will use the stored calories to work for energy.
As Nutritionist Apurva says "Every person is different and so is their body and its requirements. We need to analyse how much our body requires and how much is the calorie intake in a day. If we monitor and maintain our calorie intake, we will lose weight in a healthy way".

How much calories should one intake?

The average number of calories required for a woman is between 1600-2400 whereas the average number of calories required for a man is between 2000-3000. It varies with age. Anything lesser than this results in weight loss.
