I’m just confused on how losing weight actually works. So if I cut myself down to 1500 calories a day, I would have to burn like 2000 calories to lose weight? That just seems like a lot of exercising to me, especially because I’m juggling a job and highschool still. Could you guys explain it to me in a better sense?
In: Biology
It’s a combination of calorie deficit and insulin control.
Control calories by choosing foods that are more nutritious, less processed and control insulin by not snacking or chronic over eating high sugar foods that would lead to constant elevated insulin levels which will block all body fat burning.
One of the best minds on this subject is Dr. Ben Bikman who studies and teaches fat metabolism.
