Hi Marsoopial, here's some info about how many calories you should
consume, and the percentage your should burn:
http://www.weightlossresources.co.uk...e_calories.htm
I found this section of the article to be particularly heplful:
This is the amount of calories you burn just by being alive – even when you are lying down, doing nothing. BMR accounts for approximately 60% of the calories burned for an average person.
Although the average person burns around 30% of calories through daily activity, many sedentary people only use around 15%. Simply being aware of this fact – and taking every opportunity to move can make quite a dramatic difference to the amount of calories you burn.
I hope this helps. :grin:
