Answers: I heard you can burn calories when you're idle and dont do anything...but not eating while doing it. Is it true?

you burn 50 to 60while sleeping 70 awake doing nothing, all per hour.

60 calories burned per hour just for living...... even when sleeping or reading

yeah, your heart has to beat, head has to think, even when you are asleep

It all depends on how old you are, (younger burns more/growing)
Also, on your height (taller=more)
And last, on your muscle mass(more muscle=more calories) {muscle takes more calories to maintain than fat, which is why excercise is so widely popular with losing weight}

It's about 50 calories per hour but you have to take into consideration that some people burn more because they toss and turn a lot more than others
