Burning Off Those Kilojoules : Exercise : Health : Lifestyle : Web Wombat

 You need to burn off around 15,000 kilojoules (3500 calories) more than you take in if you want to shed half a kilogram (1lb).
There are a couple of ways of achieving this. You can either drastically reduce your kilojoule intake so that your body starts to feed off its own reserves, or you can maintain your present eating habits but crank up the amount of physical activity in your life. The smarter way, however, is to combine the two.
Eat better, exercise more. It's that simple.
If you just starve yourself, you're likely to lose weight - and your health! If you are a 90kg person who keeps eating a normal amount of kilojoules but decides to walk briskly each day for three kilometres or so each day, you can expect to lose about 6.5kg (1 stone) in a year.
