Lessened, since you're not really burning anything.
If you're literally just sitting or laying around all day, 1200-1400 calories spread out in multiple small balanced meals is appropriate.
Though, really, it would be better if you threw in at least some light activity. Even going for a walk. Even if you aren't taking in more calories than you're using, extreme inactivity is still bad for you. It messes with all of your systems.
At least do some light stretches and exercises. Drink a lot of water and eat more fiber. Avoid junk food.
It wasn't technically a manga question so thanks for the replies. I didn't think about extreme inactivity being a problem so I'll consider doing stuff besides lazying around on these days.
it doesn't matter about the calorie intake, as long as you burn more than you consume. If you don't exercise a lot, then eat more healthy food that have less calories and more fibers and proteins
oh I just realized how late my comment was
we should become friends lol because I might be visiting japan next year too. Also, for personal reasons but i am in the process of losing weight. Look how that works out?? lol
Late or not it adds info so it's nice to see your comment :) And yea i'm also losing weight for personal reasons, just that japan gave me a set date for some progress so it helped motivate me... otherwise each time I see some meals or such in a manga I just wanna eat because it always looks sooo good ლ(´ڡ`ლ) but I have to be careful since I read manga everyday, sukiyaki, ramen and such aren't exactly healthy food...
Not really related to mangas, but I am planning on visiting japan next year and I thought learning japanese would make it easier but also... losing weight. Since only about 4% of the population in japan is overweight I didn't wanna be the foreigner and fat person T.T (I don't like exposure much) so my question is, for days where one does nothing but read manga and play games (aka not moving besides going to the fridge) what should one eat? normal meals? or lessened ones?
