Low calorie diet

As most people know, a low calorie weight loss regime is based on the fact that if you want to become thinner, it is important to eat less calories than your body normally needs.

So what is a calorie?
A calorie is a unit of measurement for energy. A 'calorie' is the the energy required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree centigrade at normal atmospheric pressure. If a food contains more calories, then it will provide your body with more energy when your body converts it.

Low calorie food types include broccoli, green pepper, apricot, steaks and burgers, and skimmed milk.
