Inadequate data for calorie problems. Do you have a chart with rate of burning calories/body weight for each activity? Different activities burn calories at different rates. Typically, you would need to change caloric intake by 3500 calories to lose one pound.
Someone please help me not sure if I even know what I am doing with any of this.
