Your body needs to burn a certain amount of calories every day to perform its daily functions. A calorie deficit occurs when the number of calories you eat in a day is less than the number of calories you burn. For example, if you burn 2,000 calories a day through exercise, but only consume 1,500 through diet, you will have a 500-calorie deficit.
