Answer:
approximately 350-500 calories per day
Explanation:
It has been shown that obese and lean people's calorie needs are different despite having the same daily activities (for example, sitting and walking). These variations can be associated with different factors including height, weight, sex, age, physical condition, muscle mass, etc. At comparable body weight, lean people need less energy than obese. In this regard, it is important to note that people that have regular exercise routines burn fewer calories when doing the same activity. Moreover, lean people have proportionally more muscle mass than obese people, and thereby they are capable of burning more calories in the same unit of time.
A is incorrect. Eating nothing but fruits will not provide you with the right amount of carbohydrates and proteins everyday. C is incorrect. It is not enough that we eat one of each food group since we have target calories per food group. D is incorrect since calcium is not only what our body needs. B is correct, we have target number of calories each day in our diet.
