Answer 1

One pound of body weight is equivalent to 3500 calories. So in order to lose one pound of weight, we need to create a calorie-deficit of 3500 calories.

We can do this by increasing our calorie expenditure, by reducing our calorie intake, or (best) by a combination of both.

Answer 2

3500 energy is a pound, however wasting that so much everyday is unattainable and dangerous. Instead I could advise chopping your calorie consumption through 500 energy an afternoon - that is one pound every week you are wasting from vitamin - and additionally to that doing 30-60 mins of fats-burning aerobic, like going for walks or another prime-power exercise, four-6 days every week. That is the one strategy to do away with current fats. Anyway, at five'eight, one hundred forty kilos could make you lovely skinny. It probably dangerous to lose an excessive amount of weight, exceptionally when you consider that you are generally going via puberty and you wish to have a few additional fats to your frame's alterations.

Answer 3

It takes a deficit of 3500 calories to lose a pound. In other words, whenever you have burned 3500 calories less than you have taken in, you will lose a pound. That usually takes more than a day.

Serious, but healthy dieting, accompanied by exercise will typically see about a 3 pound weight loss per week...that's just an average though. Some may see a little more....some a little less. Depends on a number of factors...including how much you have to lose to begin with.

Answer 4

Okay...I only started three Mondays ago and All I do is walk one hour every morning. I wear a calorie counter monitor to loose weight by the numbers. I have already lost two pant size and 15 pounds. I am a woman and have three kids and this is the method I use when I gain weight.. I am now at a size two and everyone is always amazed that I have had three kids. This is what I do below when I throw on a few extra pounds. It always works..No diet pills, no energy drinks..just me walking and getting the water I need. Of course I watch what I eat and the Lean Cuisine meals are great for that since the calories per box are 180 to 380 per box. Just make sure you eat healthy every three to four hours so your body will perform at its max.

Helpful Tips for weight loss:

1)A good way to loose weight is to use a calorie counter watch

Keep to a 1,200 food intake

Add 1,200 plus 3,500 (equals one pound of fat) ...and that is the total amount of calories you need to burn each day. Its actually really easy once you start watching the numbers and it doesn't seem like work or exercise. Its just a matter of changing the way you think about loosing weight.

I use this method when i gain some pounds. The first time I did this I went from 168 to 127

2) Most people do not get enough water in their system. Water is your body's principal chemical component, comprising, on average, 60 percent of your weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.

Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don't have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. To determine if you are getting enough water use this simple formula.. Take your weight, for example 150 pounds and divide by 2. Take your answer which is 75 lbs and change it to ounces, in this case 75 ounces. That is how many ounces of water you need a day. Your body performs mostly on water. If you make sure you get enough water everyday your body will perform at top notch and your body will no longer have the cravings of junk food. You will have a better performing body system to help you work out and feel better thru out your day.

Answer 5

The answer lies in how active you are. The trick to losing weight is burning more calories than you intake. If you are eating a heavy calorie diet already, than just reducing that will make a difference, but to make a big difference you'll have to start exercising regularly and cardio (like running) is the best to lose weight.

Answer 6

Its all about calorie counting your daily calorie intake is 2000, And 35000 calories equal a lb. So if you take in say 1800 calorie daily and you was to walk one hr. which equal about 400 calorie your daily outtake is around 1400 calorie for that day. Which is a start. A useful web site for me is 50 million pound challenge, they even have diet group.

Answer 7

You must eliminate 4000 cal from your diet to equal one pound of fat.
