Answers:
In actual fact, you burn calories by just living! your body needs a certain number of calories a day just to live!. So if your daily needs for example were 2000 cal and you consumed 5500 cal that day, the extra calories will get stored as unwanted energy, and over a period of time if you kept it up you would put on weight!. The rate weight gets put on will depend on the individual - some people have a high metabilism and dont seem to have a problem consuming alot of food where as some people put on weight just by looking at food (so to speak!)!.
But in energy terms, 3500 cal is about a pound of energy, and if you wanted to lose a pound a week, you would have to reduce you cal (or exercise) the equivalent of 500 cal a day than what your used to eating!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
