What food has less calories than licking a stamp?
celery. . . you actually burn more calories chewing it that it has
What food has zero calories?
diet sodas if that counts... but also, celery has negative calories actually! it has so little calories that the calories it does have, you burn while chewing it.
Does celery make you lose calories?
Yes. Most people believe that you lose calories in chewing, but it's actually the digestion process that burns calories. It is properly called a negative food. It does take more calories to eat AND digest it than it contains. but still even if it does burn calories, burning calories isn't as good as eating it! :-) (i love it!)
What are calories measuring?
The amount of energy that you can get from that food. We get our energy from calories. And when we burn energy, we burn calories. So, we measure calories to see how much energy we will get from that particular food. This tells us how much of that food we should eat, compared to how much energy we expend.
Is a food calorie the same as an exercised calorie?
Yes, the calories you eat are the same calories that you burn.
Why do fast food makes people gain weight?
Fast food is typically very high in calories (the average fast food meal normally has about 1,000 calories), and any calories a person doesn't burn off ends up leading to weight gain. If they exercised the calories off, then it wouldn't make them gain weight. But most people normally don't burn all the calories they ate at that meal. However, fast food every once in a while is fine, and won't make you gain.

Will you lose weight while on your period?
it depends, if you dont increase your consumtion of food, then you will burn an extra 400 calories a day (about), but that is also why we have an increase in hunger.
If you stand up while eating do the calories count?
Yes, standing up while eating does not significantly change your activity level and it would also depend on what you ate (every food has a different amount of calories).
If eating too much food is bad why do Olympic athletes eat huge amounts of food?
Because they burn an unusually high amounts of calories in training. If you did the same you could eat a lot too. Additional answer: It is bad to eat more calories than you burn. Olympic athletes do not eat more calories than they burn. An elderly sedentary person may only burn 1,000 calories a day. A football player may burn 5,000 calories a day. While the elderly person would become extremely fat on a diet of 3,000 calories a day, the football player would not be able to function. Too much food is a relative term depending on how active a person is. Are you in a nursing home? Do you have a desk job? Do you run marathons? When are you swimming the English channel?
How do body get energy from food?
When u eat food your body takes out the calories to burn. That is wat produces energy. However if have to many calories at one time your cant burn it fast enough and will eventually becomes fat
How are calories important to your bodies?
Calories are only a measure of how much energy you can get from a nutrient or a food source. The more calories you get, the more energy you can burn. However if you burn less calories of what you ingest, you get stored fat. Calories are how we measure energy from foods for our body. When we get more calories than we burn, we store the extra in fat cells. This is how we gain weight. When we eat less calories than we burn, we use the extra calories tored in fat cells. This is how we lose weight.
