That really depends on how many calories you are ingesting. The simple rule to weight loss is intake has to be less then out flow. You should get a body analysis done that tells you what your resting metabolic rate is and from that you can see if you need to drop your caloric intake. for more help about healthy ways to lose weight go to http://www.loseweightnow.com/healthysolutions this will give you some good programs that will help you lose weight and also help you get good nutritional health. 3500 calories burned equals about a pound of fat

3500 calories must be expended to lose one pound. Decrease food consumption, increase movement/excercise. When calories out exceed calories in, that is how you lose those pounds...

twice as many calories as you eat. so if you ate 2000 calories in a day, which is ideal, you would need to burn 4000.
