Eating habits and calculation of kj to kwh

For our homework we had the task to list what we ate and calculate the kj to kwh.

Because I know how hard it is to lose weight after gaining it (yes, eating is much funnier;) ), I listed up some meals within one day. To show others and specially myself, that everyone can reach his goals if one is willing to.

I invite you to take a look on my little chart here:

HW SSO 18.09.19.xlsx (14.04 kb)

To compare these numbers :

In one day I ate around 650 kcal. These are 2719.6 kj and 0.755444 kWh.

In my training I burned according to my fitbit 242 kcal. Which is 1012.53 kj and 0.000281258 kwh.

So instead of eating healthy like I did I could eat 6 Kinderriegel. One of these has got 117 kcal, 489.528 kj and 0.13598. And I guess I still would be hungry in the end..

To calculate the numbers from kcal to kj and kwh I took this calculator.

To sum up, I am very surprised because of these numbers and very glad that I have the possibilities to choose what to eat. It should be allowed to eat something unhealthy as long as one will find the way back to balanced eating habits. The one who wants will find ways. The one who does not want will find reasons.

Thank you for your attention.
