Sandra ate about 2,000 calories yesterday. She was not feeling well, so she laid around and watched TV all day and burned 1,200
calories. If Sandra did this all week, she would __________. a. lose weight because she is in a state of energy balance
b. maintain her weight because she is in a state of energy balance
c. lose weight because she is not in a state of energy balance
d. gain weight because she is not in a state of energy balance
I believe Sandra will gain weight because she is not in a state of balance. She will eat about 2000 calories and then lie down the whole day without exercise or moving her body. Though she loses 1200 calories, still the amount she intake is higher that the amount of calories she loss.
