Q

How to calculate how many calories to loose per day to achieve a certain fat loss per week What do we have to remember during this calculation?

A

1lb (454g) of adipose tissue is 87% fat= 395g fat= 3500kcal

To lose 3500 kcal per week = - 500 kcal per day however, there will also be protein and water loss, thus more than 1 pound may be lost with 500 kcal restriction
