Question
I am going on holiday in 8 weeks and I would like to lose a few pounds before i go. How could I do this?
Answer
Balance in food intake and exercise is important. Your goal is to lose 2 pounds per week. There needs to be a deficit of 7000 calories per week. You can probably decrease food intake by 500-750 calories per day and add exercise which would burn about 500-750 calories per day. At the low end of 1000 per day you could lose 2 pounds per week.
