How Much Weight You Can Lose In A Weak Safely

Do you wonder how much weight can you lose in a week? Not only you but approximate 5400 people search for the answer of this question every month on Google search. Though there is no exact answer for this question as there are different factors behind it but it’s important to know how much weight you can lose in a week safely without affecting your natural health.

There are many supplements in the market promising 15 Pounds weight loss in a week and some also deliver the results but research says it is temporary effect and it is not safe. Most of the fast weight loss supplements not only reduce fat but also reduce water in our body causes dehydration and weakness that takes time to recover and even effect is temporary.

Author of the Why Diet Fail, obesity expert Yoni Freedhoff says, if you cut back to 500-800 calories and workout for couple of hours daily then you can lose seven to nine pounds out of 250 pounds a week where as trainer Marc Perry, founder of BuiltLean says he has seen clients lose up to 1-1.5% of their body weight a week.

How much pounds you can lose in week depends on your body type and actual weight your body have but it is safe to lose 1 to 1.5% of your body weight in a week which can be achieved by cutting calorie intake and physical workout (weight training, aerobic exercise etc.)

Means if your body has 250 Lbs weight, you can lose 2.5 to 4 Lbs a week safely and easily which is also healthy for long term.

The other factor is your body type. It’s easy to lose weight of fat as compared to weight of muscle. If your body has extra fat than it is easy to reduce it with workout and calorie cut in your diet but if your body has weight of muscles, losing is bit harder.

My friend Norenj, 27 Yrs had 210 Lbs weight, but he wanted to reduce it fast to pass medical examination test. Not actually know how much calorie he cut down but survived with just one heavy meal, 3 Glass of fruit juice and salad a day with aerobic exercises (12 Kilometer running and 45 minutes of swimming). After 5 week he managed to lose 31 Lbs of weight, means he lose about 6 Lbs a week safely with any supplement and by just cutting calorie intake and doing aerobic exercises.

Some weight training experts says, if you take only 800 calorie a day and workout daily with heavy weight, you can even lose 13-15 pounds of 250 body weight in a week but don’t follow this routine continuously. This routine is for one week only if you want urgent weight loss otherwise it is not recommended. Take protein rich food, liquid soups, fruit juice only.
