Another thing I&#x27;d like to point out is that, as long as your overall diet is off by a constant factor, all you have to do to lose weight is calibrating your diet.  Think of a feedback loop between how many calories you&#x27;re eating and what your weight is.  If you&#x27;re not losing weight, then cut the number of calories you&#x27;re eating more!  It doesn&#x27;t matter what the actual numbers are of how many you think you&#x27;re burning versus how many you&#x27;re losing; all that matters is results.  If you&#x27;re not getting those results, reduce intake further.  Think of it as solving for an unknown constant factor on calorie account through experimentation with measurement.
