Scientists say the average 35 year old female will burn 46 calories an hour sitting at a desk, whereas the same female would burn 50 calories per hour sleeping. The numbers vary depending on your sex, weight, age, height and metabolic rate. But the numbers are fairly similar. Hope this helps.

What nutrients does chocolate chips contain?

Very few. Calories are technically a nutrient; they're in there. If it's a homemade sauce with dark chocolate, you may get some antioxidant's, but it's a fairly minimal amount and not really a good reason to ingest a vast amount of chocolate sauce. If there's any cream in there you might get a tiny amount of calcium. But primarily chocolate sauce is just sugar-based calories.

Reducing Daily Calories Achieves Better Weight Loss Results?

With the amount of diets on the market, it can be confusing as to what really works. No matter which plan you choose, you ultimately need to reduce the amount of daily calories you consume to lose weight. One pound of fat is equivalent to 3,500 calories, so this is the minimum amount you will need to reduce through exercise or better food choices for each pound. Although a reduced-calorie diet might seem like a daunting task, there are easy ways you can decrease calories on a daily basis so that you are not overwhelmed. Exercising a bit more each day, and reducing portion sizes will make significant impacts. Gradually decreasing calories overtime might take longer than other diets, but the results are more likely to stick.
