Is it true that you should burn more calories than you eat?

    To lose weight, yes, but you're possibly misunderstanding the statement. That calorie burn includes (and is mostly) the calories required just for you to function and do your daily living. It doesn't mean you need to burn more than you eat through exercise alone.
