In other words, the body expends more energy than it takes in as something.

Our bodies must expend ongoing effort to maintain a constant force, except for the case of merely resting your weight on something.

The body readily stores fat but expends a larger proportion of the carbohydrates consumed as heat.

Your body expends that energy like making an investment at the bank - you have to put something in to get something out - and you have to get back more, or it is not worth it.

Moreover, the body expends more energy burning fat than burning carbohydrates, yielding what Atkins calls "a metabolic advantage."

The Basal Metabolic Rate, which is the amount of calories the body expends at rest, meaning without performing any physical activity, is influenced by the person's total weight and total amount of muscle.

When the body is expending more energy than it is consuming (e.g. when exercising), the body's cells rely on internally stored energy sources, such as complex carbohydrates and fats, for energy.

Our bodies expend energy through normal functioning as well as through exercise.

A stalk of celery provides 6 calories to the body, but the body expends only half of a single calorie digesting it.

Our bodies expend lots of energy creating an environment in which a variety of cell types can flourish.
