MORE FREE STUFF:

Now Available: Your free online DAILY FOOD & ACTIVITY JOURNAL. Print out some pages and use them throughout the day. Record your physical activities and keep track of your calorie intake at mealtime. (This page is viewed best with Microsoft Explorer).

Also Available: Your free online ENERGY BALANCE CHART. Print and use copies of this chart to write down all your body composition and energy balance information. Follow the numbers on the chart as you form new habits, and permanently control your weight. Be sureto print this page in Landscape mode. Use the back button on your browser to return to this page.
Here's how to use the chart to lose body fat: When your daily calorie intake is 1000 calories less than your daily energy output, you will lose body fat at the suggested maximum rate of 2 pounds a week. In other words, in one week you will have lost 7000 calories, which is equal to 2 pounds of fat (3500 calories = 1 pound of fat). Unfortunately, if you try to lose body fat at a faster rate than this by crash dieting, or if you are dieting while burning anaerobic calories, watch your lean body mass (LBM) fade away, and your percentage body fat go up!
For more information about calculating your body composition and energy balance, see Percentage Body Fat Page.
