WHAT IS BMR?
BMR is an abbreviation for Basal Metabolic Rate. This is the amount of energy we use every day just to stay alive. It is also called our Resting Calorie Requirement. We need energy to keep our heart beating, to keep breathing, to regulate our body’s temperature, to digest our food, to think in our minds, etc., even when we are resting. You can calculate your BMR easily by using our Calorie Counter for Weight Maintenance tool. TRUEDiet calculates this for you when you input your values in your profile. In theory, we should all ingest at least enough food every day to maintain our BMR.

WHAT IS THE BEST TYPE OF WEIGHT LOSS DIET?
A healthy diet combined with daily exercise is the only proven method for permanent weight loss. Changing your diet alone is not enough. For most people who are overweight, this means they must incorporate lifestyle changes in order to lose weight. These lifestyle changes include a healthy diet plus the appropriate amount of exercise. But the key to doing these lies in your motivation to do them. Being motivated to pursue and maintain these healthy habits is vital for weight loss success. You have to be excited to eat the right foods, excited to exercise every day, and excited to keep your motivation. These concepts of creating incentives to infuse excitement into a person's life to accomplish these goals is what the TRUEDiet is based on. It is more than just a diet. It is a change in lifestyle.

WHY ARE SOME FATS GOOD AND OTHERS BAD?
Good fats have been shown to benefit your heart, your metabolism and your immune system. These are the unsaturated fats, such as omegas and most vegetable oils. Bad fats have been shown to do the opposite, they can actually increase heart disease. They are bad because they tend to increase the level of bad cholesterol in our bodies. These could "plug-up" our arteries and may result in a higher risk of cardiovascular problems. These bad fats are the saturated fats and the trans fats. You should limit ingestion of these. Unfortunately, they are in many commercially prepared foods, such as french fries, fried foods, some snacks and processed foods.
