How to LOSE weight?
First, determine from the information below, what your weight should be. Then set yourself goals of a week, 2 weeks, a month, 3 months, 6 months and a year. As you see yourself meeting your goals it becomes easier. Remember, you didn't gain your weight overnight so don't expect to lose if overnight. Plus, weight lost slowly is more likely to stay off than weight lost in a hurry.
If you need conversion info, 1 kg = 2.2 pounds and 2.54 cm = 1 inch (12 inches = 1 foot)

"How can I Lose 1 pound of body weight per week?"
One pound of body fat is equal to about 3500 calories. So to lose 1 pound of weight per week, you need to eat 500 calories/day LESS than you burn.
But it's not a good idea to lose weight simply by cutting calories. As well as decreasing calories you should increase your daily physical exercise. This helps to burn calories and build more lean tissue which in turn burns more calories.
"What should a minimum calorie intake be?"
As a guide to minimum calorie intake, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends that calorie levels never drop below 1200 calories per day for women or 1800 calories per day for men. Even these calorie levels are quite low.

Another thing that helps to lose weight is to always eat a good breakfast. That helps to jump start your metabolism which helps start burning calories. Also, try to drink 8 eight ounce glasses of water every day. One before every meal (except breakfast) and before all snacks. That helps curb your appetite which helps reduce caloric intake.
hey girl! well first off don't do anything too unhealthy, got it?
it's average if you are on a diet to lose 2 lbs a week. not quite fast enough, huh? yeah, it's slow, but focus on something a little bit more realistic like 5.
if you do heavy cardio workouts with little food, you will most likely give in. which means: when you're done w/ the workout you will PIG OUT and end up feeling bloated and gaining weight. or you will faint. not fun either.
most importantly eat healthy!! for one day write down EVERYTHING you eat. how many pretzels did you grab out of the bag? how many fruit snacks are in that pouch? EVERYTHING. then at the end of the day you'll realize you're eating way more food than neccesary. the next week just carry the note around in your pocket as a little reminder.
GOOD LUCK! feel confident. :]
Depends on your metabolism... its not safe but... 500 cals/day while doing heavy Cardio
and tons of water. It works as a natural diuretic.
