Your average consumption is 1900 calories per day.
If we compare your eating habits to the "normal" requirements, as defined by health authorities, your calorie consumption is
within the higher limits. All of the above takes into account your age, weight, size, active lifestyle, and the total absence of exercise.
However, you wish to lose weight. In your case, you will need to slightly reduce your intake of calories and alter the types of food you eat.
In order to lose weight, the balance of food is as important as the number of calories.
In addition, we recommend that you exercise regularly or play a sport.
The food we eat provides us with proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. The proportion of each one of these nutrients must be balanced. Any imbalance, regardless of calorie intake, can lead to an increase in weight and also cause an unstable loss of weight (called the yo-yo effect).
