What is Calorie Deficit Diet?
“Calorie Deficit Diet plan is specifically concerned with the calories in our bodies. It does not specify any food that you should or should not eat,” says popular dietician and author of the book The Little Book of Game Changers, Jessica Cording. According to Jessica, calories refer to the energy that the food you consume contains.
“As your body breaks down food, calories are released. So, you need to consume a standard amount of calories in order for your body to function properly. When you consume more than the standard amount of calories, it takes the shape of fats. Ultimately, you get body overweight.”

Again, there are no hard and fast rules (dos and don’ts) in the Calorie Deficit Diet. Rather, it is a generalized plan that disallows consuming food that is rich in calories.
