How Many Calories Do You Burn Each Day?

I was thinking about this yesterday as I cleaned the house .. how much work housework and how many calories you actually burn while doing housework and other daily activities. If you read my tip yesterday, you already know that if you are building muscle, each pound of muscle you have burns 6 calories a day without moving so you have a bit of a start (especially if you are already working on weight bearing exercises and building a good muscle structure to support your bones.)

So of course, wondering minds.. (or was that wandering minds... needed to know the answer to this question. The answers I found confirmed that if you keep moving doing your daily activiites, active playing with your children or going out to play sports etc, as long as you are watching how many calories you take in, these regular daily activities will go a long way in helping you with your weight loss.
