Answer:

To lose a pound in a week, you would have to eat, 500-1,000 calories every day, along with exercising. I wouldn't recommend this because it can lead to long-term problems such as organ failure, death, mental health issues, and developing new food allergies. A calorie deficit diet is not healthy and will only cause problems. The best way to stay healthy is exercising and eating healthy, 3 meals and 3 snacks and a day.

Answer: And if you eat fewer calories and burn more calories through physical activity, you lose weight. In general, if you cut 500 to 1,000 calories a day from your typical diet, you'll lose about 1 pound (0.5 kilogram) a week.
