| Bob,
I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you wanting to know
how many calories you have to burn to lose a pound? If that's the
question, I believe it's 3500 (someone please correct me if I'm
wrong). Or, are you asking if you sat down and ate a pound of say
butter, which is considered fat, how many calories would you be
consuming?
Hope this helps,
Virginia

| To answer the question posed in .0, a pount of fat contains
about 4,025 calories.

I've always seen 3500 as the calorie content.
But, now that I think about it, 8-9 calories/gm, 454 gm/lb,
gives 3632-4086 calories total.
So somewhere around 3850.

A *lot* of times around the track.
How many calories does the average person burn a day.? A typical
hard working Deccie systems type, burning the keyboard, getting
those docs, and all those physically challenging activities of us
software types?

| The following came out of a book designed for women:
Activity Level Multiply your weight by
-------------- -----------------------
Does nothing actively 12
Rides to work, sits at work 14
Teacher, mother of small children 16
On the move most of the time 18
Physical worker plus extra exercise 20
The result is the approximate number of calories/day you need to
maintain your present weight.
