Adding calories to your diet will help you to gain weight, but it will not necessarily be a healthy way to do it. It depends on the foods you eat. If you eat junk foods that have a lot of refined sugar and other unhealthy ingredients, it will not be healthy. Eating a balanced diet of healthy foods, like fruits and vegetables, meats, grains, etc., but eating more is a healthy way to gain weight. Getting exercise daily is also healthy.

How much weight would a 6 foot 275 pound male lose in a week with consuming 800?

Eating 800 calories a day is very dangerous. A man of that height and weight should be consuming about 2,000 to 2,200 calories a day. If they wished to lose weight, the best way would be to reduce the calories to around 1,600 to 1,800 calories a day and begin to exercise. Such a dramatic cut in calories (to 800, for example), would reall begin to wreak havoc on the metabolism and not lead to healthy, long-term weight loss.

This would depend on if you need to gain weight to reach 135, or lose weight, as well as how much your exert yourself during the day (i.e. how many calories you burn) What is your current weight? To lose weight in a healthy way, it is often recommended that you cut your dietary intake down to about 200 calories below what you burn during the day; this will provide a steady, maintainable weight.

If you weight 128lbs, then you should be asking yourself why you feel you need to be losing weight. Even for a 5'2" woman, 128 is a healthy weight. If you are having problems with "trouble spots" go to the gym and tone up. It would be healthier than cutting your calories.


What is the basic principle of a healthy menu for person who would like to lose weight?

Calories in minus calories out equals weight gained. The large majority of your calories are used up for basic everyday tasks like breathing and breaking down food, but you can burn additional calories exercising. The more you burn, the more you can eat. There are a lot of weight loss tools built on this concept, such as MyFitnessPal, and Weight Watches is based on similar logic as well.

How do you keep your weight at 97 or 98 no more then 98 pounds?

Well, that isn't a very healthy weight for an adult, so I would not keep it there forever. But maintaining a certain weight is basically about not taking in more calories than you burn. Eating takes in calories and regular life and exercising burns them... you just have to make sure that they balance out in order to not gain weight.
