PART 1
How Many Calories Should You Eat on Average?
An average woman needs to eat about 2000 calories per day to maintain,
and 1500 calories to lose one pound of weight per week. An average man
needs 2500 calories to maintain, and 2000 to lose one pound of weight per
week.

However, this depends on numerous factors. These include age, height,

current weight, activity levels, metabolic health and several others.

What Are Calories?

A calorie is a unit that measures energy. Calories are usually used to
measure the energy content of foods and beverages. In order to lose weight,
you need to eat fewer calories than your body burns each day.

Eating More Protein Can Reduce Appetite, Cut Cravings by 60% and
Increase The Amount of Calories You Burn
When it comes to losing weight, protein is the king of nutrients.Adding
protein to your diet is the simplest, most effective and most delicious way to
lose weight with minimal effort.
 Studies show that protein both increases your metabolic rate and helps
curb your appetite .Because protein requires energy to metabolize, a high
protein diet can increase calories burned by up to 80 to 100 calories per day .

Protein is also the most filling nutrient, by far. One study showed that
people who ate 30% of calories as protein automatically ate 441 fewer calories
per day.
In other words, you can easily increase calories out and reduce calories
in… just by adding protein to your diet.Protein can also help fight cravings,
which are the dieter’s worst enemy.

In one study, 25% of calories as protein reduced obsessive thoughts

about food by 60% and cut the desire for late-night snacking by 50% .
If you want to lose weight, sustainably, with minimal effort, then consider
making a permanent increase in your protein intake.

Not only will it help you lose, it will also prevent or at least significantly
reduce weight regain, in case you ever decide to abandon your weight loss
efforts .

Do Some Exercise and Lift Weights

When we eat fewer calories, our bodies compensate by making us burn
less.This is why long-term calorie restriction can significantly reduce
metabolism.Not only that, but it can also lead to loss of muscle mass. Muscle is
metabolically active, so this can reduce metabolism even further.Pretty much
the only proven strategy to prevent this from happening is to exert your
muscles by lifting weights.

This has been repeatedly shown to prevent muscle loss and prevent your
metabolism from slowing down during long-term calorie restriction .Of course,
we don’t want to just lose fat… we want to make sure that what is beneath
also look good.If you can’t get to a gym, then consider doing some body weight
exercises like push ups, squats, sit ups, etc.
 Doing some cardio like walking, swimming or jogging can also be
important. Not so much for weight loss, but for optimal health and general
wellbeing.Of course, exercise also has a plethora of other benefits that go way
beyond just weight loss… such as a longer life, lower risk of disease, more
energy and feeling better every day .

c) The best measure of central tendency to describe the calorie intake

by the students of my school is by mean. It is because it is computed by
adding all the values in the data set divided by the number of
observations in it.
The mean uses every value in the data and hence is a good
representative of the data. The irony in this is that most of the times this
value never appears in the raw data.
Repeated samples drawn from the same population tend to have
similar means. The mean is therefore the measure of central tendency
that best resists the fluctuation between different samples.

It is closely related to standard deviation, the most common measure

of dispersion.
d) The measures of central tendency are not adequate to describe data.
Two data sets can have the same mean but they can be entirely different.
Thus to describe data, one needs to know the extent of variability. This is
given by the measures of dispersion. Range, interquartile range, and
standard deviation are the three commonly used measures of dispersion.

Interquartile range is defined as the difference between the first and

third quartile. Hence the interquartile range describes the middle 50% of
observations. If the interquartile range is large it means that the middle
50% of observations are spaced wide apart. The important advantage of
interquartile range is that it can be used as a measure of variability if the
extreme values are not being recorded exactly as in case of open-ended
class intervals in the frequency distribution. Other advantageous feature
is that it is not affected by extreme values. The main disadvantage in
using interquartile range as a measure of dispersion is that it is not
amenable to mathematical manipulation.

Standard deviation (SD) is the most commonly used measure of

dispersion. It is a measure of spread of data about the mean. SD is the
square root of sum of squared deviation from the mean divided by the
number of observations.

The reason why SD is a very useful measure of dispersion is that, if

the observations are from a normal distribution, then 68% of
observations lie between mean ± 1 SD 95% of observations lie between
mean ± 2 SD and 99.7% of observations lie between mean ± 3 SD.

The other advantage of SD is that along with mean it can be used to

detect skewness. The disadvantage of SD is that it is an inappropriate
measure of dispersion for skewed data.

Reflection:

By this additional mathematics project.I have learn some

knowledge there are always appear in our daily life,calorie. Calorie
is very important to us. We need to have a balance diet everyday to
get a healthy life. This make me realized that the food i eat
everyday was no a suitable choice for me to get a healthy life.From
this project, i have learned some useful knowledge about the
calorie and i will have a plan about my diet according to the calorie
in the future.

The project is a bit challenging for me and my mates. We

spend some times to solve every question.Other than that,I also
knew that teamwork is the only spirit of a team.

As a conclusion, I have learned many knowledge from this

project and the project was a good experience to me.
