Calorie Calculator

I took a simple assessment using the calorie calculator at the Health Promotion Board (HPB) website at http://www.hpb.gov.sg/ and the results show that the amount of calories needed to maintain my current weight and daily energy requirement is approximately 2386 calories!

Indeed, an ideal body weight is the result of a balance between your calorie input and your calorie output. Its all about the mathematics! If we consume more calories than we have burnt, we may become overweight. Thus, regular exercise could help us burn these calories instead of storing them as fat.

Hmm... I'm having thoughts about joining HPB for a career...
