What is average weight loss for one week?
May 12th, 2009 | by Mike |Mrs. Nikki Sep(The One and Only) asked:
I was wondering if anyone knew what an average weight loss per week is. I started eating healthy last week at around 1200 calories *because I wasn’t yet working out* and lost 4 pounds. Now, I’ve started eating around 1600 calories because I’m alternating with aerobics and pilates and I have already lost 2 more pounds. I want the weight that I lose to stay off *just had a baby and had a few extra pounds after getting married!* What do doctors recommend losing, and if I’m losing too much, should I add more calories or willthe weight loss taper off after a few weeks?

healthy weight loss is around 2 pounds a week but that can be done at a way higher rate depending on the diet

Nothing more then 7 lbs is normal. Any thing more and your damaging yourself. As long as your working out to burn those calories you are eating you will be ok. If you eat more calories then you do work out then you will gain weight. Simple right. Your body does have a set weight. that is where you body like to be at a certian weight it doesn’t matter how much you starve yourself or work out you body just seems like it is not loosing any weight. Don’t be discourage it this happens. Just keep exercising and eventually your body will have to give.

Your calorie intake is just right. It is recommend to lose 1-2 pounds a week. This is a healthy weightloss rate and you will more than likely be able to keep it off rather than losing too much too fast. Sounds like you are on the right track and keep at it!
