How much calories do I need to burn to lose weight naturally?

An easy way to estimate the calories requirement to burn to gain your desirable body weight is to multiply 300 to the weight you want to lose in kg.1 kg is around 9000 calories. Thus, if you wish to lose 1 kg of weight per month, you need a calorie deficit of 300 calories per day (9000/30=300). This short fall can be produced by eating fewer calories as well as burning more calories or combination of both. For instance you can eat 200 fewer calories with an exercise that will burn 100 additional calories per day.
