Question

Mikesha is trying to take a sensible approach to weight loss. If Mikesha wants to lose weight at a rate of about one pound per week, about how many more calories per day must she expend than she consumes?

Answer 1

500 calories a day or 3500 calories in a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a sensible n safe weight loss of about 1 pound per week, the individual who is on this journey to lose weight is always advised to cut down on his calories intake by at least 500 calories per day.

In order to have a safe weight loss, the appropriate recommendation is that you lose no more than 1-2 pounds per week. For one to lose one pound of fat per week, you would most likely need to burn/reduce your intake by about 3500 calories, that will be about 500 calories per day.
