Calorie Requirements
Question: When calculating calorie requirements, where do burned calories fit in? As in: if I needed, say, 1500 calories per day to maintain my weight, but in my daily activities burned 500. Do I then need to eat 500 more calories? Or is input unrelated to output in this case?
Answer: No, you don't need to eat an extra 500 calories. What you should do is maybe eat 200 to 250 calories more to give yourself a buffer zone, because you won't burn 500 extra calories everyday and some days you may burn more. This way every day will be a give and take. If you ate the full 500 calories extra everyday (and depending on how much of that 500 calories was carbohydrates) you run the risk of gaining weight.
Question: Is it possible to gain weight while eating under your daily calorie requirements?
Answer: If you're doing less exercise. Your body may also become more efficient storing calories if you are eating too little. It's your bodies defense against starvation.

Question: what can a vegetarian allergic to rice and wheat eat to meet daily calorie requirements?
Answer: Lots of stuff! It's just a pain in the ass checking everything for wheat, but then, you're already used to that as a vegetarian.
Ideas:
- All beans
- Tofu
- Tempeh
- Barley (great in stews)
- Quinoa
- Oatmeal
- Cornmeal (polenta, wheat-free cornbread, etc.)
- Avocado
- Nuts and nut butters (try nut butter on apples or wheat-free bread)
- Vegetables and fruits of all kinds
I am assuming you are only allergic to the things you mentioned; if you are trying to avoid any amount of gluten, it is possible that you will need to research the barley and oatmeal.
Question: In calorie, what are the calorie requirements for a 14 years old?
Answer: It depends on mainly 3 things:
1. height
2. current weight
3. if he/she is an athlete
i'm 14, and i do gymnastics over 11 hrs a week so i consume about 2,500 calories a day. however for someone that doesn't work out that much it can be less.

Question: My Calorie requirements? : Your professional opinion please? I've been searching online for a few days trying to find out my calorie requirements for weight loss. However, the calculations vary a lot and sometimes conflict with each other. I'd like to hear from a real professional. Here's my stats:
Male, 36, 5'8, 210lbs
I'm a teacher, I watch a lot of TV and play video games during the week. Not very active outside of school except...
I workout at the gym 1.5h, 4 times a week. 30min running / 1 hour moderate, full-body weight training.
My weekends are moderately active. Walking around the city, shopping with my SO.
My goal:
I want to lose 2lbs / week.
I've been trying calories from 1700 (starving!) and 3000 full but feeling like I ate too much. I've been tending to yo-yo around that range through the week, depending on how hungry I am on a particular day.
How many calories should I be taking in on a daily basis?
Answer: For fastest weight loss, eat only 1,500 calories. It takes a few days (about 3-7) for your body to stop feeling hungry, but you eventually will get used to less food. Eat 5-7 times per day, small meals, and eat high fiber meals to feel full. Also, make sure you drink plenty of water, as the body will occasionally confuse thirst for hunger. Also, negative calorie foods, like apples and celery, offer no calories, but still take up space in your stomach. Your workout routine seems pretty good, but you can increase intensity to see more results. Good luck, and if you have any questions, feel free to email me.
Question: Do you have to meet your daily calorie requirement to lose weight? On The Biggest Loser, the trainer Jillian told her team members that they weren't losing enough weight because they need to be meeting their calorie requirement? It turns out they were eating less. Shouldn't eating less make you lose more weight? What if you aren't working out? Also, how do you know how much your daily calorie requirement is?
Answer: This is so true! Think of your body like an engine. The engine needs fuel to run. If it does not get any fuel to run then it shuts down. When it is shut down then it is not going any where. You cannot loose weight unless you keep your metabolism up high and your body if it is starving is going to try to store fat. This comes from genetic survival when we were cave people. The ones that survived when there was no food passed on their genes to us!
Question: How do I find my minimum calorie requirement using my Resting Heart Rate? I am trying to lose a little extra extra and I am wondering how I can calculate my minimum daily calorie requirement once I know my resting heart rate?
Answer: Um.. you really can't . Resting Heart Rate is an indicator of your fitness level, what you use to calculate out the most effective rates for you to train at. (it is called the Karovean method and generally the most effective way to calculate training heartrates)
You would use Base Metabolic Rate and Resting Metabolic Rate to calculate dailiy minimum requirement and add in your daily activities. It is most effective if you know your bodyfat % but you can get a general idea if you know your total body weight. I would bump it up a bit if you work out frequently (lbm burns more calories than fat) and don't forget to add in daily activities.

Question: Whats the Calorie requirement for 12 yr old boy to maintain weight? 12 year old male ,5'9 ,weighs 193,whats the calorie requirement to maintain his weight,?
Answer: Take a look at the source calculator. It doesn't go below 13 yrs old, but for someone that age, with the height and weight you describe, with no exercise, he would need about 2295 cals a day to maintain. If he's active that will change and you can do the recalculation on the site yourself.
Question: a 14 year old's calorie requirements? i'm 14 years old, 5ft5in and 98 lbs. i eat 1500 calories a day and am never hungry, infact i'm usually quite full. but i know a 14 year old should be consuming 2000-2500 calories a day. i can't eat that much without feeling sick and i don't want to put on wieght. so i guess what i'm asking is, can a 14 year old be healthy with 1500 calories a day and very little excersize?
also, i don't eat like your typical teen. i hardly ever eat junk and eat healthy whole foods. i eat mostly vegetarian as well and have gone through periods of being vegan.
Answer: You definitely can be healthy and you sound healthy. Don't stuff yourself with food if it makes you feel sick. Getting into a habbitt of eating too much will make you want to just keep eating and not stop snacking on junk. Just keep eating how you are. Eating more will make you gain weight and make you feel sick because your body is used to eating a ceratin amount of food. =)

Answer: firstly dude, at 6 foot only being 120 pounds isnt bad. also ur 16 man ur metabolism is racing. as far as how many calories u need that depends. really all u want is to break even basically. so like u dont want to be gaining too many calories or burning off too many. i would prob say that if u lift and run and are active then u should be at least 2000 if not more. the reason u arent losing anymore weight is cause u have no more to lose. do u actually see places on ur body that u can lose any more weight?
