Theoretically.

I know if I burn 500 calories of fat I'll loose 1 lb in a week. And this is a 500 cal deficiency. But since I don't know how much of the burger I've digested or how much intensely my body is working to, say, regulate my T; I have no clear idea how much less I should eat

That being said N. Americans eat horribly and I agree they should put some thought into what they eat.

(Btw, I'm 6ft 2, trying to loose a few lb to get back to the mid 170s)
