FAQs about weight loss and diet
The answer is as individual as you are. Each person will have a different caloric intake total, each day of the week, to reach the required 3,500 calorie deficit to lose one pound of body fat. If you burn 500 more calories than you eat a day, for seven days, you will burn 3,500 calories. On a day that you burn 2,500 calories, you can eat up to 2,000 calories. On a day that you burn 2,800 calories, you can eat up to 2,300 calories. Each person will be different and each day will be different.

Ask Monica: How many calories should I eat to lose weight?

Therefore, cutting 500 Calories (kcal) per day will equal one pound of weight loss per week (500 Calories x 7 days = 3500 Calories, or 1 pound).

HOW FAST SHOULD I EXPECT TO LOSE WEIGHT?

Answer: Usually the weight loss occurs during the first 14 to 20 months following surgery. In the first 3 months, a patient usually loses about 30% of their excess body weight. At 6 months, a patient has usually lost about half of their excess body weight. Weight loss starts out fast, then slows down each month, until near the end, it's about a pound every other week. Usually by about 20 months you're not losing weight anymore, because your bowel and your metabolism have adjusted.
