By now you’ve heard calories in vs. calories out. But no one even explains what that actually means. This is so important for us to start our journey.
No matter how complicated some fitness experts try to make fat loss sound, it is an incredibly simple process.
First thing you need to know body fat should be thought of as stored energy. That’s right, your beer belly is really a Duracell battery! The point of body fat from an evolutionary point of view is to store energy for periods of starvation, your body can then break it down and use it.
As you can see, your body is very good at storing body fat, because for thousands of years it was crucial for you to do so.
Every day you burn calories performing numerous tasks. Going to the gym obviously burns a lot of calories, but so does sitting in a chair reading a book. Walking up the stairs, vacuuming the hallway, taking the dog for a walk. Every single action (even breathing) burns calories.
The total number of calories you burn is usually around 2000 per day, but this can vary dramatically depending on your lifestyle. Some people burn significantly more, and some people burn significantly less.
Your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) is the total number of calories.
Another thing that we do every day is eat and drink; the foods we eat and drinks we drink contain calories (energy). Adding all of these calories up will give you your Total Energy Intake.
If your total energy expenditure (calories out) is lower than your total energy intake (calories in) your body will store all of the excess calories as body fat.
If your total energy expenditure exceeds your total energy intake, your body will burn stored energy (body fat) to balance the equation.
If your total energy expenditure and intake are identical, you will neither gain nor lose body fat.
It is important to think about this process in weeks and months rather than days. One day where you eat a little more than usual will not lead to significant fat gain. One day where you exercise like crazy and starve yourself will not lead to significant fat loss.
But if you go 16-20 weeks with a small calorie deficit you will start to lose significant levels of fat. Sadly, the opposite is also true.
