I would say that you would lose a great amount doing that. I have been eating 1200 and I am supposed (according to the website) to lose 13 lbs. by November 30th. It is great you should try it. Email me and we can be weight loss buddies and track each other progress. Good Luck! References :
There are 3500 calories in a pound of fat. Measure your basic body needs for yourself. (http://www.ahealthyme.com/topic/calneed )Subtract 1,000 calories from that number. Now you have how many calories you are losing in a day. Multiply that by 30 and you have how many calories lost in a month. Divide that number by 3500 calories, and there you have it, potential pounds of fat lost. You many want to try light weight training, studies have shown that weight training, even light, can continue to burn calories throughout the day. I don’t recommend being on this diet to long, but when you lost the weight don’t go back to old habits quickly. Slowly increase calorie intake with weight and cardio. You’ll be able to eat the foods you love and have a lean muscle mass in the near future. References : Pre-Med student.
The truth is that u would lose just as much on a regular 1200- 1500 cal diet. In fact, u might lose even lesser. Thats cuz ur system knows u r trying to starve it and like it war-time, the way we stock up on food resources, the body will store fat n glycogen even more. References : Dietician
I have been through it all and know what’s it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can’t be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I’ve worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes.
Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight.
First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can’t eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising…
This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it’s good for the heart.
However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It’s so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I’ve found a great addition to help any one out, it’s a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don’t get all crazy on me and say diet pills don’t work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn’t meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It’s an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at theweightlossplace dot com along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it’s the best pill I’ve tried and I’ve tried cupboards full. Now this doesn’t mean you have to follow my foot steps but I’ve successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day.
Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate. References :
