Weight and calories are two different things.\n\nFor example, one pound of fat contains 4,081 (kilo) calories but one pound of sugar contains only 1,814 (kilo) calories.  Compare this to one pound of water which has no calories.\n\nThe calories you burn come from the food that you eat - if you eat one pound of food and perform enough exercise to burn off the calories in that one pound of food you will have neither gained or lost weight.\n\nTo look at it another way, you would need to be engaged in about 2 to 3 hours of intense physical exercise or about 6 to 10 hours of moderate exercise to loose one pound - that's assuming that you don't compensate for the energy used by over eating.

Depends on what you eat.  You need to combine excercise with a diet low in calories.

ONLY if they contain all the added nutrients you would need in a normal balanced diet. You should always eat a healthy meal ever day and maintain at least 1200 calories to lower risk of cardio problems. Take care.

1. Burn more calories than you eat.  3500 calories = 1 pound.\n\n2. Combine calorie reduction with aerobic exercise.\n\n3. Low carb diets were shown to be dangerous when they were a fad back in the 1960s.\n\n4. It is dangerous to eat fewer than 1200 calories a day.\n\n5. It is dangerous to lose more than about 2 pounds a week.\n\n6. Make sure you get a balance diet.

If you can burn about 500 calories per day (and don't eat more to compensate), you can lose 1 pound per week.

How many calories you burn will be specific to each person.  On average though running will burn more than bicycle riding. Men burn faster than women, heavier people will burn more than thinner people.  You will need to find a chart that you can adjust for your sex and weight and other factors.\nBicycle riding at 5.5 MPH will burn about 450 calories per hour\nRunning at 11:30 minute mile pace will burn about 700 calories per hour.

you have to burn an additional 3500 calories to rid your self of just one pound in combination with lower caloric intake and excersize. cleansing your system will maybe help you jumpsatrt a diet but long term- you lose whatever you had in your system at the time.

Around 1200 calories per day.\nBut it gets worse, what kind of calories?\n\nYou need to make sure it is balanced enough so that as you lose weight, you don't lose your current muscle. If this happens, as soon as you come off the diet, you will gain weight back + a few pounds.\n\n\nAs stated above, it is best to consult a professional.\n\nI have a book out right now that only cost 30bucks and it covers weight loss in depth.

The easiest way to determine how many calories you can eat and lose weight is by figuiring out how many calories you burn a day.  As long as you burn more than you eat, you'll lose weight.

People often overestimate calories they burn during exercise and underestimate the number of calories they take in.  If you are really serious about losing weight,  I think the most important thing you need to do is know exactly how many calories you are taking in and how many you are burning.  If you take in less, you are guaranteed to lose fat stores.  You body fat percentage is a better indicator of your health then your weight…since muscle weighs more than fat.  My advice is to start using www.fitday.com  Track everything you eat, down to the spoonful of sugar that you put in your coffee or that peppermint you popped in your mouth.  In addition to being able to track what you eat, you can also record your exercise.  When you enter exercise the website will adjust your total calories that you can have for the day. I guarantee you, look at what the website says your total calories should be and then take in 500 less and you WILL lose fat.\n\nAnother point is try not to restrict your calories by more than about 600 to 700 below what you can have for the day.  Severe calories restrictions are unhealthy!  Lose the weight somewhat slowly and in the meantime learn how to eat to maintain your body weight (once you are where you want to be).  \n\nDo not go on any diet where you are eating less than 1000 calories per day. Even if you only weigh 100 pounds you should still be eating at least 1000. Your body will not get the nutrition it needs to stay healthy.  Not to mention you will lose a lot of muscle in the process ..which you don't want to do.\n\nAlso, when determining how many calories you burn during exercise, do not go by what the gym equipment is telling you, it is often inflated. Just enter your activity in fitday or you can use this website  http://www.primusweb.com/fitnesspartner/jumpsite/calculat.htm

It's true that you have to burn more calories than you eat to lose weight.  If you eat more than you burn, the excess is stored as fat.  However, you use a fair amount just by normal daily tasks such as walking round, keeping the body warm and alive, etc.  Depending on what you do during the day, you will burn off 1500 calories or more.

the only way to lose weight is by exerting more energy than you put in.  for instance,  you eat a can of tuna that has 60 calories per serving and each can has 2.5 servings.  that's 150 cal right you would have to run 1 mile to burn 150 calories. (apx)  There is now magic pill that will take it off only proper diet and training.  It doesn't even matter what you eat as long as its not sugar and fat.  You just have to do more than you eat.

You would have to burn 3,500 calories to lose 1 pound of fat.\nWith no changes in your diet, it would take a month to lose 1 pound burning 120 calories a day.
