- Two online AI calculators give maintenance estimates about 300 calories apart for the same person. According to the guide, what best explains this?
- One of the calculators must be broken
- Both the BMR prediction equation and the chosen activity factor add uncertainty
- Maintenance calories change by 300 each day
- Only one calculator used the person's height
- What is the main flaw the guide identifies in the rule that 3,500 calories equals one pound of fat lost?
- It overestimates long-term loss because the body burns less as it shrinks and adapts
- It underestimates loss because fat contains more energy
- It only applies to people over 60
- It ignores protein entirely, so it overestimates muscle loss
- Which tool does the guide name as a dynamic model that shows weight loss slowing over time?
- The Mifflin-St Jeor equation
- The body mass index chart
- The NIH Body Weight Planner
- A 7-day rolling average
- Someone loses 2 kg in the first week of a new plan and expects the same every week. What does the guide say about that first drop?
- It is entirely fat, so the pace should continue
- It proves the calorie target is too low and must be raised immediately
- It means the scale is miscalibrated
- It is partly water, glycogen and salt shifts, not all fat
- Which health-oriented goal does the guide suggest is more useful than a number chosen for appearance?
- Losing 5 to 10 percent of body weight, which can improve blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol
- Reaching the lowest weight shown on a BMI chart
- Losing 20 percent of body weight within two months
- Matching a celebrity's reported weight
- Based on the guide, which person should involve a doctor before starting an AI-generated weight loss plan?
- A healthy adult who wants to walk more
- Someone who takes insulin for type 2 diabetes
- A person who wants help logging breakfasts
- Someone who prefers weekly rather than daily weigh-ins
- A person logs intake carefully for three weeks at about 2,300 calories a day, and their 7-day average weight stays flat. What does the guide's empirical calibration method conclude?
- The BMR formula must be used instead, since logs are unreliable
- They should immediately cut to 1,200 calories
- 2,300 calories is close to their real maintenance intake
- Their metabolism has stopped working
- After calibrating, how does the guide suggest adjusting the calorie target?
- Halve the calorie target at once
- Change it daily based on each morning's weigh-in
- Never adjust it after the first calculation
- Change it in modest steps of about 100 to 200 calories, then wait about two weeks
