around 200-300calorie deficit is good for start and it can be easier to stick to. People go into too deep deficit like 500-800calories from the very start and then screw up after few days
If you’r confused I’ll explain when she says calorie deficit of 1300 and 1800 in her examples she makes it seem like they are eating 1300 or 1800 calories(in each example she gave) below maintenance , what really she’s saying that they’re trying to eating a total of 1300 and 1800 calories a day for an over all deficit, in example one they’re trying to eat 1300 calories a day which would be (maintenance)2300-1300(calorie goal a day) =1000 calorie deficit which wasn’t doable so they failed and didn’t meet their goal each day from numbers she gave in the example , so they had an average of -850 for the week at the rate it would be -850 times 4 weeks in a month which is-3400 calories which is almost -3500 calories which is almost a pound. By raising the goal of calories to 1800/day it was more doable and the person was able to meet their daily calorie goal(on average)So their over all deficit was 2300-1800= 500 times 7 days week times 4 weeks =-14000 calorie deficit a month -14000/3500(pound in calories) = 4 lbs loss a month.
thank you this made more sense. her explanation was truly confusing. I think her information is valid and true, but i had to watch the video 3x then read your comment for it to make some sense
@@Zombina638 for example as the person above mentioned, to maintain their weight they need to be consuming 1800 calories. In order to have a caloric deficit, you will need to reduce your calorie intake by 250-500 depending on what your goals are and how quick you want to lose weight as well as maybe keeping muscle too. So 1800-250 equals 1550 or 1800-500 equals 1300. Use tdee calculator to find out your maintenance calories and then reduce your maintenance by 250-500 :) sorry for long paragraph but hope it helps

Maintenance calories is what you eat to maintain your current body weight, basal is your bmr and is the calories you need to do daily functions-being alive. Eat in a moderate deficit of your maintenance calories & you’ll lose weight.
I’ve been eating about 1.2k a day no snacks/unhealthy food however the website says my maintenance is 2.6k I’m a bit lost tbh. Plus I exercise with weights 6 times during the week one day being a rest. I started this just last week hope it all works out

Maybe it’s because I put on a few lbs but I was pretty toned at 170lbs after working out for a couple months before so maybe that’s why
Just need to eat 500 cals less! So in the 2000 calorie example, eat 1500 calories/day. You could even start smaller at 200 calories. So In the 200 cal deficit, you would eat 1800 calories/day.
I’m 5’1, a teenager, I weigh 103 pounds, extremely athletic. I eat just about 1000 calories a day usually less. I’m mostly maintaining weight. What can I do to loose fat and gain mustle?
If your maintenance is 1800, could you eat 1800 and exercise and burn 300 to get a net of 1500 to lose weight? Or would you have to eat 1500 calories plus exercise to lose weight? I have been maintaining weight at an average of around 1700-1800 calories with 3 to 4 days of cardio a week. I want to cut down to 1600 calories because i didnt see weight loss with 1700-1800 calories.
Usually the reason people say to diet for a calorie deficit is because exercise calories are very difficult to accurately count and people often overestimate them. Things like smart watches and the like are usually wildly inaccurate so it's easier to track food intake. That said, I've been able to create a deficit through exercise alone while eating at my sedentary maintenance and am losing about 1-1.5 lb per week, but I also exercise a lot (I walk 3 hours per day). If you track your calorie intake and weight daily and compare the two you can get a rough idea after a few weeks of how many calories your workouts are burning.
I always get jealous seeing people say their maintenance calories are 2K+ because mine is 1600 calories. I am fairly active but I’m not exactly sure how to measure that or if I even should take it into account when figuring out my deficit.
DO. NOT. DO. THAT. I used to that when I had eating disorders (I still do, but I kinda recovered), but thing is : If you eat really few calories, your body will go on stocking fat mode because there's not enough calorie to fuel your body.

I have been on the carnivore diet (only meat/eggs for 30 days now. I have maintained a large calorie deficit because it's very hard to eat 3000 calories a day of meat.

hello, I want to get myself in shape im 16 and have a fat build and im a little overwhelmed on how to go about loosing weight and building muscle is there any tips you could give me?
my biggest advice is mental - make sure you PLEASE begin with a healthy mindset. Don't get so involved in calories, obviously not a great idea to eat a whole cake or a drink that has 600+ that is just one drink, but really, calories don't matter, it's the breakdown of the food - mainly carbs. I recommend finding some easy meals to start with that you like. For example, they make keto bread, cheese and meat (that aren't super processed) have very little carbs/calories if any, so a classic ham and cheese, personally i like quesadillas, they have healthier tortillas and if u add things like chicken, cheese, and spinach, or much else, that's healthy and easy to make! I also happen to like eggs and bacon, again, if made correctly, healthy, easy meal. I'm pretty picky so might not sound super appetizing to you. Find a sport/activity you enjoy but that also challenges you. Start simple. Do you eat 5 snacks a day? Try 3. Do you normally have 2-3 times the recommended portion size? Maybe try taking that down a little, but do NOT starve yourself or become super obsessed with meals, please! If you eat healthy food, you can eat SO MUCH of it! RUclips and Google aren't as good as actual doctors, but can be helpful in doing research. Consistency and reality are major for me. I made a list of my favorite healthy meals, so i can go look if I'm feeling unmotivated/want a snack but not sure what to eat and want to be healthy. Take cheat days! Eat pancakes or cake or ice cream! Don't deprive yourself, but learn to pace yourself. I'd eat a whole bag of m&Ms, now i have learned (through a LONG journey) to be satisfied with a handful max. Just me tho.
If you have binge eating problem 2 things high volume foods/meals but make sure the calories are low enough to make your calorie deficit, and eating slow so your body knows when your full, drink lots of water too 1 gallon
If i eat over 1,150 i always gain weight somehow. Even though my basal is 1,150. I have to eat 1k or less or i gain weight - idk how maybe i just have bad genetics. Im 94-97 pounds (i fluctuate between the 2 every single day somehow.) And 14 and 11 months. I dont get it. How can people eat their maintenance and not gain weight???
@@justarandomperson8561 No, BMR is the number of calories you burn just existing (like if you were in a coma you would still burn 1400 a day). You also burn calories on top of that from just the daily tasks of living, and then you also burn calories on top of that with exercise. Your TDEE is the number of calories you burn from living and exercise combined, so if you're fairly active this could be hundreds more than your BMR. That is the number you subtract calories from to create a calorie deficit, not your BMR.

Would I still have a good amount of weight loss since that’s a 800 kcal deficit plus exercising 30 minutes a day 5-6 days a week? I’m 245 lbs 5’9, 25 yrs old and trying to lose 75 lbs. I’ve lost 5 so far.
I'm exercising 30 mins - to and hour and a half a day everyday for 30 days combined with 1200 calorie deficit or lower. I'm on day 9,and I'm feeling the hunger lol. I mean I can still continue and all but I'm wondering if it's a good idea to go higher 1200 to maybe 1800 every 7th day?
What can I do if my BMR is 1450, does it mean that I should eat 1200?😰😰 I can’t be full after that amount of calories and always just think about food Maybe I can eat ~1450 and do sports + walk?
Calculate your maintenance calories from the internet there are many websites that provide u this service for free. Maintenance calories are the amount of calories u need to eat to maintain your current weight Eat 300 to 400 calories below this the way i did this is by having late breakfasts so i wouldnt need a lunch and then having dinner. Since u will be bound to feel hungry i would suggest u to eat more protein and fibre as these are hunger reducing foods. I would also suggest to walk 8000 steps a day and u will get weight loss pretty fast. I went from 89 to 72 in 3 months

can you explain a little more i don’t understand. like on day 1 you eat 1850? but is the 450
the 450 is the amount of a calorie deficit you're in for that day! 2300-1850=450
Is it just me or u also thought she was Jenna Ortega?
I'm exercising 30 mins - to and hour and a half a day everyday for 30 days combined with 1200 calorie deficit or lower. I'm on day 9,and I'm feeling the hunger lol. I mean I can still continue and all but I'm wondering if it's a good idea to go higher 1200 to maybe 1800 every 7th day?
1200 sounds low and unsustainable. You can book a free consultation with me to get more detailed.
What can I do if my BMR is 1450, does it mean that I should eat 1200?😰😰 I can’t be full after that amount of calories and always just think about food
Maybe I can eat ~1450 and do sports + walk?
book a consultation with me!
Why would you go 1000 under on the first day? It is very simple, 😅😅
Hi I'm 16, 156 cm or 5'1 or 2? In feet, my weight is between 59kg to 62 but how will i start doing calorie deficit?
Calculate your maintenance calories from the internet there are many websites that provide u this service for free.
Maintenance calories are the amount of calories u need to eat to maintain your current weight
Eat 300 to 400 calories below this the way i did this is by having late breakfasts so i wouldnt need a lunch and then having dinner.
Since u will be bound to feel hungry i would suggest u to eat more protein and fibre as these are hunger reducing foods.
I would also suggest to walk 8000 steps a day and u will get weight loss pretty fast.
I went from 89 to 72 in 3 months
@@advaitparab4852 Do we need to stay on a calorie deficit of 300-400 c a day for awhile then gradually increase it?
@@nunyabusiness6313 no remain in the deficit if ur sole purpose is losing weight n slimming down. If ur purpose is building muscle then there is a diff way to it
So 1900 is a good caloric deficit for me then?
hard to say! I don't know anything about you
Thank you Taylor Swift
So im 2471 so i must eat 471 to loose weight
What did she say? 😮
?
How can I burn more calories than I eat. Nowhere has told me that.
do physical activities that you like, go for a run or play any sport you likr or go to the gym and lift weights
Increasing muscle mass helps!
Exercise burns more calories and building muscle raises your TDEE
girl i eat 700 cal at most, work out 7 days a week and i’m still not losing weight 😫
You probably eat more than 700
@@klutchedup9 i count my calores.
@@jimenazamora277 how old are you because there's no way you're surviving on 700 as an adult or teenager
@@klutchedup9 but i am, it’s not that little, 700-900 is what it usually ends up being
@@jimenazamora277 you know you're slowing down your metabolism, right?
Or u could just eat 1300 and deal with it
not sustainable!
She talking too fast
sorry!
Is this assuming you burn the same amount of calories every day? I thought basal was resting calories burned? What about if I go hard?
You add the calories from the work out, use a workout app where you log what workouts you did and how many, it will tell you the calories you burned.
Talking like a million miles an hour and nothing you said made sense....
My BMR is 2600 for a 33yr male thats now 359lbs. IS this correct? Iv been trying to be around 1600 daily on myfitnesspal. with now adding cardio, 1 hr treadmill walks, for that weight at incline im hitting like 750 cals burned is what it says.
