How Many Calories Do You Need To Maintain Your Weight?

As I shared a few days a go, I have been traveling for the last few days. I just returned and as much as I love to visit my family, there is no place like home.

I am trying to decide if I want to weigh in the morning or wait a couple days. There is nothing worse that getting on the scale and seeing it go up. I did so good through the holidays, I just hope this past week has not set me back :)

Do you know how many calories you need daily to maintain your weight? If you don't, please let me share with you a great, quick technique to use to keep your weight management on tract.

If you’re looking to lose weight,, maintain your weight or decrease your weight there is a quick solution for calculating your individual caloric needs.

In order to figure out how many calories you’re eating every day to maintain your current weight.
It is quick and easy just multiply your current weight by 12, which will equal the number of calories needed daily to maintain your current weight.

As an example lets say you weigh 150 pounds, what you would want to do is multiply the 150 by 12, which will equal 1,800 calories.

So then the 1,800 calories is the number of calories you need every day to maintain your 150 pounds.

If you weigh 125 pounds, the equation would be 125 X 12 = 1,500, which means that a 125-pound person only requires 1,500 calories a day to maintain her 125 pound weight.

Tomorrow we are going to share with you how to calculate how many calories you need to cut from your daily intake to lose 2 pounds a week.

Until we meet again .... Keep Smil'n
