How many calories should you eat to be anorexic?
You don't eat a certain amount of calories to be anorexic. You are anorexic simply because you have a wrong image of your true body image and go to extremes in order to not eat well. Don't try to became anorexic. It's not fun or cool believe me it sucks. It will not make you happier.
What happens if you dont get enough calories in a day?
You lose weight. You can also affect your energy levels, your ability to think clearly and your ability to function normally. If you are too deficient, your body can start to 'eat itself' and cause permanent damage to organs. Many people that suffer starvation, even once given food, cannot fully recover.
Does drinking warm water burn calories?
Yes, drinking cold water will burn a small number of Calories. If you drink water at body temperature, you will neither gain nor lose calories. However, if you drink cold water, your body will burn calories warming up the water.
First it is important to note the difference between a calorie and a Calorie. By definition a calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius at one atmosphere pressure. What we commonly call a Calorie (with a big C) is actually a kilocalorie, or 1000 little calories.
Since body temperature is 37.5 degrees Celsius and there are apx 997 grams of water in a liter, we burn about 37,000 calories (37 Calories) for every liter of almost freezing ice water we drink.
If we drink the recommended 8 cups/2 liters of water per day, 74 calories isn't much when compared to a 2000 Calorie a day diet, but over a year that adds up to around 27,000 Calories burned just by drinking your water ice cold instead of warm!

How many calories in a microwave egg with salt and pepper only?
That depends on how you cook the eggs in the microwave. Fore example, if you scramble them will you add milk or butter. Please feel free to ask the question again and include more detail. Meanwhile, for the calorie content of scrambled eggs, see the page link, further down his page, listed under Related Questions.
empty kilojoules is the word given to food staffs or drinks that provide you with energy (joules or Kilojouels) but not any vitamins or minerals whatsoever. Put simply it is a food that you eat that has no real nutritional value other that energy.A good example is carbonated soft drinks, the give you loads of sugar, but no mineral or vitamin in that energy. Foods (and I am using the term loosely) such as chocolate bars and potato crisps - you know the ones they have right at eye level in the supermarket aisles.

How many calories should the average 12 year old..5 foot 3 inches and 105 lbs.. consume daily?
1,600 calories, in average.
Do you burn more calorie if you are more fit?
No. obese people have a lot more fat on them than people that are working out. So if you're working out and you're fit then you are going to lose more and look a lot skinnier than the obese person... and the obese person needs to work a lot harder then the person who's fit because they have a lot more to burn off.
Alternative answer:
By the fact that an obese person weighs more, and has a larger body to support, it is a logical assumption to make that an obese person 'needs' more calories to maintain the same weight.
However, the amount of muscle mass a person has will also dictate how much energy is used, and this may vary substantially between obese people.
How many calories are there in steak and a baked potato?

How much calories should a preteen girl have a day?
One gram of protein has 4 grams of calories. By definition of a calorie, it is a unit of heat that determines the amount of energy that foods will produce in the human body. (In 1824, Nicolas Clement discovered that a calorie was a unit of heat)
In a dictionary, a calorie would be defined as "approximates the energy needed to increase the temperature of 1 gram of waterby 1 °C. This is about 4.2 joules."- wikipedia. This is the general definition of a calorie that you would also find in biology textbooks.

calories and watts cannot be converted.
A calorie is a measurement of energy. A watt is a measurement of power. It would be like asking "What is 1000 gallons of gas in miles per hour?" When you buy electricity you buy energy (not power) units called kilowatt-hours. Do not confuse this with kilowatts per hour. Spend some time thinking about power, energy, rate and force. They can be very confusing and are often misused so look for what the author meant to say.
The simple answer is 1 calorie = .001162 watt hours.
1 nutritional calorie (1000 calories (go figure)) = 1.1620 watt hours.
1000 (nutritional) calories (kCal) = 1162 watt-hours.
The inefficient body the conversion is about 20%.
Therefore 1000 kCal =1162 watt-hours * .20 = 232 watts-hour work output.
Detailed
- Calories can be converted into watt-minutes, watt-hours, watt-days and other units of energy.
- A calorie is a unit of energy and applies to anything that contains energy, including food. The nutritional Calorie, which this question is about, is 1000 science calories or one kCal.
- If you were to consume the recommended 2500 kCal a day, you would be using as much energy as a 120w light bulb being lit for one day or 120 watt-days or 2880 watt-hours.
I have a crank generator that has a 100 watt light bulb connected to it. When I am cranking fast enough to get the bulb to full brightness I am putting 100 watts into the bulb. If I do it for one minute I have put 20% or 1.4 kCal into the bulb and 4.6 kCal into making me me very hot. I am burning a total of 6 kCal each minute. This can vary wildly depending on the type of exercise, body weight, room temperature, etc.

Calories on a 150 watt bicycle machine for a 145 lb person
- "609 Calories/hour" = 150 watt-hours work output
- 609 kCal = 1.162 * 609 watt-hours = 707 watt-hours
- This body is 21% efficient.

How many calories must you eat to lose 57 lbs going form 217 to 160?
Unless you do fairly vigorous exercise/work, 1600 cal diet is a maintenance diet and you won't be losing much if anything on it. At around 900 cal you can hope for a half to a whole pound per week.
