Eat 500 calories, burn 500 calories?

You don't specify your age, I have assumed your age to be 20. If you did no exercise you would require around 1,800 calories per day to maintain your weight. Without exercise and to lose a pound per week you would need to eat no more than 1,300 calories.

(1,800 intake less 500 calories)....

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
