Biggest Loser Techniques
Your Daily Calories
Calculate your calories by taking your present bodyweight (in lbs) and multiplying it by 7. If you’re not sure what your weight is in pounds, just multiply your weight in KG by 2.205
For example, if you weigh 100kg, that would convert to about 220lb. Multiply that by 7 and you have: 1540cals/day
The 4-3-2-1 Pyramid
4. You must eat 4 servings daily of fruits and vegetables (you should have 2 from fruits and 2 from veg)
