So do I need to burn as much calories as I eat?

Hi Nolan3- Welcome to MyNetDiary!

If your goal is weight loss- the app will guide (when you first sign up) you to establish a calorie goal. While exercise is important for optimal health it is not required for weight loss. So to answer your question, no you do not need to burn as many calories as you eat.
If your goal is weight loss here are some resources: https://www.mynetdiary.com/5-tips-to-help-start-your-weight-loss-journey.html

Does this answer your question?
Best, Joanna (MyNetDiary Dietitian)

Question: As a 57 year old female in general good health, exception are occasional PVC's, is the Keto diet good to do?

Greetings Jeanette64- Welcome to MyNetDiary! Glad you found us.

The Keto diet is a high-fat, moderate protein diet plan. Many people find they lose weight quickly on the plan, though it is quite restrictive.

This piece (written by an experienced dietitian) explains how the diet works and how ketosis comes about through restricting carbohydrate intake: https://www.mynetdiary.com/ketogenic-diet.html

Here is some info on how you can tailor the MyNetDiary app when following keto:
