Well, supposedly, 2 pounds a week is the healthiest way to loose weight, I mean at the fastest pace. But, 3.5 doesn’t sound so bad. Be healthy and good luck! 🙂
Answer by black_flute_player
“One pound of fat contains approximately 3,500 calories, so to lose one pound a week, a person should consume approximately 3,500 fewer calories per week. This can be done by reducing the daily intake by 500 calories per day (500 x 7 days will provide a deficit of 3,500 calories per week). To lose 2 pounds per week, a deficit of 1,000 calories per day is required.
