Calculate calories for weight loss

Good Morning!

In order to lose weight the calories coming in needs to be less than your calorie coming out.

So how do you figure it out?

Find how much calories you need a day by multiplying your weight by 12

185 x 12 = 2220

Than round it to the nearest four = 2200

I want to lose between 1 to 2 lbs a week (one pound is 3500 calories)

Calculate how much calories your workout will burn (Les Mill Combat can burn average of 700 calories per 55 min.Want to get Les Mills Combat click here )

Calculate

2200 calories in

700 calories out

By burning 700 calories a day, per week it would be 4200, which would put me at a loss rate of a little over a pound a week

If I want to lose more I can lower my calorie intake

So now I eat 1900 a day

1900 calories in

700 calories out

Now I am losing 6000 per week, which put me at almost 2lbs a week
