Losing 1 to 2 pounds a week is considered safe and effective, because losing weight at a faster rate can be harmful and harder to maintain. To lose 1 pound a week, you need to create a calorie deficit of 3,500 calories per week, or 500 calories a day. To burn 2 pounds of fat per week, you must create a weekly calorie deficit of 7,000 calories, or a daily deficit of 1,000 calories. Just as small amounts of excess calories add up, smaller calorie deficits can also have an impact over time.
Your weight is a balancing act, but the equation is simple: If you eat more calories than you burn, you gain weight. Because 3,500 calories equals about 1 pound (0.45 kilogram) of fat, you need to burn 3,500 calories more than you take in to lose 1 pound. So, in general, if you cut 500 calories from your typical diet each day, you'd lose about 1 pound a week (500 calories x 7 days = 3,500 calories).
