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.
The typical approach is this: first they set a 500 calorie per day deficit and multiply that by 7 to get 3,500 calories. Well, 3,500 calories is one pound (kind of, as above 3,500 calories is only for one pound of fat and represents 5 lbs of muscle) so they should lose exactly 1 pound per week.
