Isn't it better, safer, and more comfortable to just eat 200-500 less calories per day?
I know that I'd rather eat one less slice of pizza during a meal than to eat NOTHING for a whole day.
As we all know, weight is primarily determined by calories in versus calories out. Since 3500 calories equals 1 lb or .45 kg, you can lose 2 lbs or 1 kg a week by eating 500 calories less each day.
- Kevguy 12y ago500 calories/day * 7 days == 3500 calories == 1 lb of fat per week. Not 2 lbs.
- nnnnni 12y agoOops, got mixed up with the conversions!
- frankacter 12y agoI think a challenge for many is what constitutes 200-500 calories and whether their will power allows them to accurately gauge and control. Not eating is binary [ ] yes [ ] no, which for many is easier to control versus picking and choosing and limiting quantity.
