If you’re losing fat and gaining muscle at the same rate, the body size
shrinks, but the number on the scale won’t change.
For example, if you are a 55-year-old woman who’s mildly active and wants to
weigh 140 pounds, you would multiply this goal weight by 12 for a
daily caloric need of 1680 calories.
Losing weight can reverse fatty liver and decrease the threat of liver
failure in people who have NASH.
While weight-loss calories vary for everyone, it’s generally understood
that eating 500 fewer calories a day from what you ought to maintain your weight
can help you lose 1 pound in a week.
TQ
