How is it even possible for the average person to calculate calories expended every day?
- sannee 4y agoCalculate? No. But you do not need to calculate, you can measure it indirectly, by running something like: X ← 2000 while true: eat X kcal/day for about two weeks if your weight has increased: X ← X - 200 if your weight has decreased: X ← X + 200 Observe that this can also be modified for gaining/losing weight. It is also robust --- X actually need not be physically accurate, it is just a number in our calorie tracking app, so even if we are miscounting something, we are hopefully doing so consistently over time.
