Part of the service on offer is a guide on weight loss goals using scientific, researched tools. This accompanies NHS / Government nutrition guidelines you can see in the Eatwell Guide blog.
Calorie calculators, like the one above, are a great resource for quickly determining a weight loss plan based on calorie expenditure, activity levels, and overall goals. The guide is bespoke per client, entering information including their metrics, life style and goals. The calculations are based on science (NOT FAD DIETS) for a sustained weight loss over a realistic period of time. Inline with NHS / Government guidelines the target will be to loose between 0.5 and 1.5 kg per week - not to deprive the body of essential nutrition. This target fat loss not muscle loss.
Weight loss calculators work by measuring: Basal Metabolic Rate (often called Resting Metabolic Rate), Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) aka calories needed, a goal weight by a desired date, and your current intake ratio of carbs, fats, and protein.
We can discuss a calorie deficit in your session. The basic calculations are energy in (food and drink) less energy out (incl. body functions and exercise) - guess you already know that. The deficit can be broken down between less energy in AND increased energy out through tailored exercise.
In summary your bespoke weight loss goals should be driven from where you are now, where you want to be, time to get there and intelligent / calculated method of achieve this in a sustained manner. Food intake should follow the Eatwell guide as much as possible - something else we can discuss.
