3500 calories equals 1 pound. To lose weight, you need a negative intake of 500 calories per day. How? Eat less calories (not eat less food, but less calories; eating primarily whole foods including lots of produce is a good way to do it), and/or burn more calories. Work out, take the stairs, walk, dance, move move, move!
It's not rocket science, but it is basic math. I'm just glad it's not algebra, or I'd be screwed.
Fitness, food, & writing are my passions, so of course, a blog. As a certified personal trainer in Napa, where food is an art form, I want to eat it, enjoy it, & still be able to get in to my jeans. Anti diet, pro healthy lifestyle. I've spent the last 20 yrs teaching about food & fitness, researching, & writing about it, so I've got a lot to say. I believe in balance; don't forget to do your pushups, & if you love 'em, by all means, enjoy some pancakes!
