1) Knowing how many calories you burn while standing, exercising, walking, running, jumping even sitting. You can know this by using Basal Metabolic Rate System(BMR).
2) Effective use of BMR is what the body needs to have normal functions such as breathing and digestion.The minimum number of calories you need to eat daily. Since calorie calculator is needed for this, means it needs to be adjusted frequently to avoid inaccuracy (not always accurate). Heart rate monitor is also an additional measurement calculator as it can be worn.
3) Use sites like calorie measurement to write down what you eat or drink .Just as food journal can also be used to write these down daily. Try to be accurate while measuring and checking nutrition information when you eat out in fast foods, resturants or visiting.
4) From your BMR number ,add activity calories and subtract your food calories from the total. If what you eat is more than burning, you will gain weight, but if burning is more than what you eat, you will lose weight.(BMR +activity is 2,000 and your eating 2,4000 calories you will gain but if BMR+activity is 2,400 and eating is 2000 or less you are lossing weight).
Try to burn 200-450 calories daily with both exercise and diet.5)Exercisie at least 250minutes weekly.That is about 50minutes 5 days weekly.
For beginners,start gradually like 3days weekly 30-40minutes for the body to start adapting.
