Do children need calories more than adults?

Everyone needs calories. The amount of calories needed is dependant upon your weight/height and activity level. For example, a person weighing 350 pounds needs more calories per day than a person who weighs only 150 pounds. Although the 350lb per person needs more calories, they can burn more calories with less exercise and it easier for them to lose weight initially. Children do need calories, as well as adults but it is more important for children to get quality calories than it is an adult. For example, a kid eating macaroni and cheese for dinner every night is not providing adquate nutrition because the child is not gaining any vitamins, or minerals or protein, etc. It is vital for children to receive vitamins/minerals and protein for children from their foods than it is for adults.

How much fat can you gain in a week?

This would be based on your BMR (basil metabolic rate) also in conjunction with the amound of physical activity that you participate in. Your BMI must also be taken into consideration which lets you know how many calories you should be consuming each week. The more muscle mass some one has, the more calories they naturally burn. The point is to balance the amount of calories consumed in conjuction with calories burned naturally and through exercise. There are many websites which inform you on how many calories you are consuming, how many you should be consuming for maintenance as well as fat loss. Most diets are based on 2,000 calories however males usually have a higher caloric expenditure than females, and children usually burn at a higher rate. Check out your BMI, your BMR, and then find a healthy diet and exercise plan that works for you specifically. It however is unsafe to lose more than two pounds a week, as anything else after that detracts from muscle mass, which acutally decreases metabolism.! hope this helps;)
