Re: Hey everybody.

Hello Mary ... welcome!!!!

By now you have probably found the answer, but to lose 1 pound a week, you need to eat 500 calories less per day than your body burns through just living and exercise. (500x7=3500 calories (one pound)). To lose 2 pounds per week, you need to eat 1000 calories per day less than your body burns. Many people choose to get those calorie deficits through a combination of eating fewer calories, and increasing exercise. (For me, I like to have exercise handle 200-300 calories of my deficit, so I can eat more veggies!)

You can do this ..... good luck!!!!
