Is it true that burning more calories will make me lose weight?

Yes, burning more calories than you consume can help you lose weight. Weight loss occurs when the number of calories you burn (through physical activity and daily living) is greater than the number of calories you consume through food and drinks. When this happens, your body burns stored fat to make up the energy deficit, leading to weight loss.

To lose weight, it is important to create a calorie deficit by either decreasing the number of calories you consume or increasing the number of calories you burn through physical activity. This can be achieved through a combination of diet and exercise.

It is important to note that weight loss is not a one-size-fits-all process, and the amount of weight you lose will depend on several factors, including your starting weight, age, gender, and activity level. It is also important to aim for a healthy rate of weight loss, which is typically 1-2 pounds per week.

If you are trying to lose weight, it is a good idea to work with a healthcare provider or a registered dietitian to develop a healthy and sustainable weight loss plan that meets your individual needs and goals.
