Calorie Needs to Maintain
Weight
To lose weight, all you need
to do is create a calorie deficit. This can be achieved either, by reducing
your calorie-intake below your maintenance level; or by keeping your calorie-intake
static and increasing the number of calories you burn.
Calories to Lose Weight
You can lose one pound of
body weight by reducing calorie intake by 3500 calories below your energy
requirements.
One pound of body fat equates
to about 3,500 calories. So, if you create a 3500-calorie deficit through
diet, exercise or a combination of both, you will lose one pound of body
weight. If you create a calorie deficit of 7000 calories you will lose
two pounds and so on.
