is it better to count calories according to your weight, or just by the ol' 1500 (to loose weight)?

Question

I've heard to multiply your weight times 15-and that's how many calories you need, then to loose weight, you subtract 500 from that (in calories). Then other people say to count to 1500. What should i go by??

do i count to 1500 or according to my weight?

Answer 1

The number of calories you need completely depends on your bone density and your metabolism. Anything else is an estimate based upon averages. Anything you find online is most likely to be second hand knowledge, taken from studies performed in the 80's by scientists who did not know what metabolism was.

Your metabolism burns more calories than any exercise or diet ever can.

Increase your metabolism by changing what you eat. Not necessarily how much.

I have an incredible metabolism. I can eat 2 pizzas a day and not gain or lose any weight.

Push yourself by running as hard as possible for 20 seconds. Rest for ten seconds. Run as hard as possible for 20 seconds. Rest for ten seconds.... most people can't make it past two repititions. I do mean most, as in 80% of americans.

Drink LOTS of water. Cut down on salt, actually all salt. There is enough sodium in any cereal you eat.

Eat breakfast in the morning. After you chug down a bunch of water, and do 10 jumping jacks.

Answer 2

1500 is a good calorie count. I assume you're exercising as well?

Answer 3

Counting calories creates stress which makes you fatter (impaired digestion). Kirstie Alley was spokeswoman for weight watchers. She is now binge eating. Diets do not work. 99% of people gain the weight back. Here is how it works. No one teaches the animal what to eat and what not to eat. He knows instinctively what to eat. Humans also have the same instinct. The way it works is just eat whatever tastes good and that will be healthy for you and non-fattening. That is why a baby tastes everything. So again whatever tastes good, is good for you. This is why you will spit out spoiled milk.

But wait!!! Man has the technology to create rat poison. It tastes like healthy food (good taste) but kills the rat. So man has done that to you. Note- any food unaltered by man (uncooked) that tastes good, is good for you. So if you are stranded in the woods, that is how you know what to eat (cooking changes that). So man has created fake fruit. It tastes like fruit that exists in nature but it is terrrible for health, addictive and fattening called sweets.

So it is natural to like real sweets called fruit, like a baby does, but they have fooled you just like the rat. But they do not want to kill you. They want you to become obese so you will buy lots of their foods. This is called GOOD BUSINESS. Remember the above (not on site) and see site below to re-learn how to eat so you can be thin and fit for life.
