Weight Loss Prediction Example
People who are slimming want to know how much weight they will lose and
how fast. Among the unique aspects of this book are the Weight Loss Prediction Tables.
Scientists have long known that weight loss is a function of age, sex, height, weight, physical activity, caloric intake and
the time on the diet. TOTAL FITNESS - U.K. Edition contains a set of twelve Weight Loss Prediction tables not
found in any other book.
Let's consider a 42 year-old woman who is 5' 8" and weighs 12 stone (168 lb). She
has a sedentary job as a computer programmer and spends most of her free time relaxing in front of a TV set. How
long will it take her to lose 1 stone (14 lb)?
She would use the Weight Loss Prediction table shown below. First
she scans the far left of the table and locate her present weight of 12 stone; from this number she moves her finger
horizontally (to the right) until it intersects the vertical column headed by the 1.0 st weight loss desired; the three
numbers at the intersection are time in days to lose 1.0 st, depending on the number of calories she consumes. Her calorie
intake options are:
* 900 Calories for 37 days.
* 1200 Calories for 46 days.
* 1500 Calories for 61 days.
Which alternative should she choose? How would an increase in her activity level affect
the time to lose weight? All this and much, much more is explained in TOTAL FITNESS - U.K. Edition.
