How Many Calories to Burn a Pound?
Have you ever wonder how many calories to burn a pound of fat? It is estimated that you need 3500 calories to burn a pound of fat. For example, you want to lose 7 kg of weight which is equivalent to 15 pounds, you need burn 52,500 calories.
Many people think that cutting on the calories intake is the fastest way to lose weight. Although I do agree to a certain point that cutting down the intake of calories can help to lose weight, but it has to be done healthily. Some people may do whatever it takes to slim down their body and they choose to starve themselves to achieve their goal. They begin to skip meals to cut on the calories, but the hunger stage to go through is a nightmare. In the end, they give up halfway through the process because they cannot stand any longer. Even if they hold on to weeks or months living only on water and slice of fruit every day, they are likely to regain back their pounds once they start to eat normally. For worse, some binge on food after their starvation period, putting more pounds after that.
Even if you lose weight through the starvation period, it is likely to be the water weight lost and that is not the ideal weight loss goal that we are looking at. We not only want weight but also fat loss to be a permanent result. The truth is serious weight loss can never be achieved by extreme diet plan like this.
To begin burning off your calories, you need a good diet plan that can help you to strip off not only your weight but also fat. Best of all, it should be easy, proven and healthy.
Always keep in mind, you do not need to spend a lot of money to lose weight or even suffer yourself to go through the slimming progress. Most importantly, you should not procrastinate and wait any longer.
