Nadine kept track of her activities for the same three days, using an activity tracking app on her smartphone. She calculated her average energy expenditure (energy output) and it was 1800 calories. Compare Nadine’s average daily intake (avg. of 2,949 calories per day) to her average energy need. Is it likely that Nadine will lose weight, gain weight, or stay the same if she continues with her current eating & exercise habits?

Answer:

Gain weight

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

Average energy expenditure = 1,800 calories

Average of calories per day = 2,949

Based on the above information, the judgment is as follows

As we can see that she consumes 2,949 calories per day and her energy expenditure 1,800 calories for 3 days

Plus she should gain as

= 2,949 calories - 1,800 calories

= 1,149 calories

So by this explanation, she definitely gains the weight
