Calories - two out of three American adults need to eatfewer. The rest struggle daily not to eat more. A calorie(or kilocalorie) is a measure of energy-producing potential.If we consistently eat more than we need, we gain body fat. If we eat less than we need, we lose fat,

The challenge arises when we fall into the "Calorie Trap." We are often tricked into our quest for energy balance (caloric intake = caloric expenditure.) People wonder why they wake up and their pants don't fit. Most frustratingly state they don't understand why; they haven't been eating poorly. Other puzzled individuals mutter, "I have been eating very little; how can I possibly gain weight," or "I eat very well," or "My clothesshrunk in the laundry." The "calorie trap" strikes again!
People constantly underestimate the number of calories they take in by not being aware of how calorie dense particular foods really are,

Stop thinking about carbohydrates, fats,
mercurial vapor, and proteins, Atkins,
moncler quciny, or the South Beach Diet, and start becoming aware of the caloric content of the foods you are eating. The key to weight loss and avoiding the "calorie trap" is to educate yourself by reading labels and making intelligent food choices.
