Title: The Economics of Weight Loss

I want all my international listeners to know how much I appreciate them. Some of these are Australia, Japan, and the United Arab Emirates, all of which I have visited. I also appreciate subscriptions, likes/dislikes, and views on YouTube. If you give me direct feedback via a comment or email, I will read it and respond if possible.

It is sometimes easier to manage weight loss as if calories were money. Say you burn 2500 calories a day, the average for an American man. Start the day with 2500 “diet dollars”, which you can spend by eating food. If you overdraw by eating more calories, you gain weight. If you are frugal, and underspend, you lose weight.

Today’s walk is a little difficult and I have some aches and pains coming up. But my knee pain from the squats I did a few days ago has gone. But on a ninety-degree day I’ve still got the FEVER.
