Calculation of Energy Needs1. Sedentary is a restful lifestyle, sitting a lot, not getting
much exercise. A “couch potato.”2. Calculate roughly how many calories you should
consumer in one day if you are sedentary by multiplying your present weight by 10.
Present weight x 10 = sedentary calorie needs3. Calculate your calorie needs if you are lightly active. An
example of a lightly active person is a student who is involved in a walking program. Multiply your present weight by 13.
Present weight x 13 = calories needed for light activity

Calculation of Energy Needs4. Calculate your calorie needs if you are heavily
active. Daily exercise programs are considered heavy activity. Multiply your present weight by 20.
• Present weight x 20 = calories needed for heavy activity
5. The method used decreases energy needs by 100 calories for every ten years over the age of thirty. Why might energy needs decrease over time.
• Metabolism is a total chemical reaction that maintains life in a living thing.

Calculation of Energy Needs7. Figure sedentary energy needs per minute. Do this by
dividing your daily sedentary calorie need (answer #2) by 24 (hours)
• Answer to 2 ÷ 24 = energy needs per hourThen divide the number of calories needed for
sedentary activity in one hour 60 (minutes). This will give you your energy needs per minute.
Energy needs per hour ÷ 60 = energy needs per minute.
Remember this is just a rough estimate!

Calculation of Energy Needs8. Figure how many minutes it would take to use
the energy in the food if you were sedentary. Divide the number of calories contained in your snack by the number of calories you would burn in one minute if you were sedentary.
answer to #6 ÷ energy needs per minute (from #7) = minutes needed to to use
calories

Calculation of Energy Needs9. Calculate minutes needed for light activity.Divide your daily light activity calorie needs (answer to
3) by 24 (hours).Answer to #3 ÷ 24 = energy needs per hour
Then divide the number of calories needed for light activity in one hour by 60 (minutes). This will give you your energy needs per minute.
Energy needs per hour ÷ 60 = energy needs per minutes

Calculation of Energy Needs10.Calculate minutes needed for heavy activity.Divide your daily heavy activity calorie needs (answer to
4) by 24 (hours).Answer to #3 ÷ 24 = energy needs per hour
Then divide the number of calories needed for light activity in one hour by 60 (minutes). This will give you your energy needs per minute.
Energy needs per hour ÷ 60 = energy needs per minutes

Weight Cycle
The body becomes efficient at making and storing fat when forced to lose and gain weight repeatedly.Repeated dieting can permanently change the body’s ability to burn food energy.The body replaces muscle mass used to burn food energy with fat.Fat does not burn food energy.Losing weight becomes more difficult with each round of dieting.The weight cycling effect may increase the risk of such things as diabetes, hypertension, and even death.Maintaining a stable weight is less harmful to health than repeated dieting.

Eat at the table with family and friends.
Do not eat while doing other activities such as playing cards or watching television.
