Venti Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Not entirely sure its possible and accurate. Fast food places maybe. Think it's 2,200/2000 calories per day. I could easily hit that with a Hollandaise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how they got 50% of your height but it might make it easier for some to recognise they have a problem rather than relying on their scales and BMI. Keep your waist to less than half your height, guidance says - BBC News Seems reasonable. That would make mine a 38 inch which is what I (just) am. Down from 42 in December. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Publishing the calories saves you having to read the description and is efficient. "450" says "shite" way more effectively than "beetroot and rocket salad with pomegranate dressing" On the other hand, "1,450" sounds amazing. It's probably got cheese and some sort of fried potato as well as proper meat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Six feet = 72 inches. Half that is 36 meaning six footers need to have a 36 inch waste. using this calculation, to have a healthy waist size of 43 inches you need to be 86 inches tall, which is 7 feet 2 inches. Basically Shaquille O’Neal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Anyway, surprised nobody has said it yet, but if you want to encourage people to lose weight then adding calories to the whole menu seems like a terrible idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
