A womans body will automatically burn a certain amount of calories for energy just to sustain her bodily function. For an average woman it's 1500-2000 per day. The larger the woman, the more she will need to burn to live. Eating less than this each day will result in weight loss, because your body will burn your fat stores if you don't feed it all these calories each day. eating more will result in weight gain, because your body will store what it doesn't use. however, remember that energy is needed for everything you do and the more active you are the more your body will need and burn
