Calories in a pound of what?

Anyway, carbohydrates and proteins contain 4 kilocalories per gram, while fats contain 9 kilocalories per gram and alcohol contains 7 kilocalories per gram.

I'll leave the calculation for you. You should have specified your question to be answered better.♥

If you mean a pound of YOU, it is said to be 3500. If you can eat 3500 fewer calories next week than you ordinarily would, you will lose one pound of YOU.

Or, if you can burn 3500 calories more than you ordinarily would, you will lose one pound. You can burn calories either through exercise or by injesting very cold material. The heat needed to raise the cold stuff to your body temperature comes from the fat in your body.

1 gram of fat contains 9 Calories
1 gram of protein contains 4 Calories
1 gram of carbohydrate contains 4 Calories
450 grams equal a pound
so
a pound of fat contains 4,050 Calories
a pound of protein contains 1,800 Calories
a pound of carbohydrate contains 1,800 Calories
All are approximations
