How many calories can you lose in a day?
Generally 1500~2000 calories should be enough, which varies from person to person.

The standard of calorie intake in the process of losing weight should be evaluated by comprehensive factors such as age, gender, current weight and target weight. Generally speaking:

Men of the same weight need more calories than women;

Adults with the same weight need more calories than minors and the elderly;

It is also related to other factors, such as different occupations and different daily consumption; Manual labor consumes more than mental labor.

There are many factors that affect the difference in heat demand. It is recommended to download Mint APP or other fitness apps for detailed evaluation, which will give recommended calories.

Extended data:

Calories are units of energy. We often associate calories with food, but in fact they apply to any substance that contains energy.

Simply put, 1 calorie of energy or heat can raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius at one atmospheric pressure. 1 calorie is approximately equal to 4. 186 joules (joules are commonly used units of energy in physics).

Most of us associate calories with what we eat or drink, such as "This soda contains 200 calories". In fact, the calories listed on food packaging are calories, and the capital letter C is also marked, which is equivalent to the heat required to raise 1 000 grams of water from 14.5 degrees Celsius to 15.5 degrees Celsius at1atmospheric pressure, which is about equal to the internal energy of 4 186 joules. (1000 calories = 1 calories).

So, actually, this can of soda contains 200,000 calories (but don't worry, it also applies to exercise-when the exercise chart says that you jog for 2 kilometers to burn 100 calories, it is 100 calories). In English, "calorie" (lowercase) means calorie, which is about 4. 186 joules, and "calorie" (uppercase) means calorie, which is about 4 186 joules.

Generally speaking, there are two kinds of calories:

Calories, also known as capital letter C, are most commonly used in food labels, which is equivalent to the heat required to raise 1 000 grams of water from 14.5℃ to 15.5℃ at1atmospheric pressure, which is about equal to the internal energy of 4 186 joules.

Small card, also known as cal, is common in scientific research literature, 1000 small card = 1 big card (1 card).
