Diary 305: Total calories needed daily

How much calories do you need daily?

Your need to eat about: your weight (in kg) multiplied by 30 calories.

Let’s say your body weight is 60kg.

You will need 60 x 30 = 1,800 calories a day.

Let’s see what you probably eat.

Breakfast = nasi lemak (644 calories) + 1 piece of fried chicken (290 calories) + teh tarik (83 calories). Total calories = 1,017 calories.

This total is 57% of the total calories you are supposed to take daily.

Breakfast = roti canai and dhail (360 calories) + teh tarik (83 calories). Total calories = 443 calories. This total is 25% of the total calories you are supposed to take daily.

Breakfast = 1 plate of wantan mee (409 calories)

Breakfast = 1 plates of mee goreng mamak (660 calories)

Breakfast = 1 bowl of mee soup (381 calories)

Nasi campur + 3 dish helpings (vegetable, egg and chicken) = 620 calories.

Now, you understand why obesity is a problem.
