How can I lose 5 pounds fast?
There are 3500 calories per pound of body fat. So if you have a calorie deficit of 500 calories you would lose approximately one pound per week: (500 x 7 = 3,500) A calorie deficit of 1000 calories would therefore mean that you’d lose approximately two pounds per week (1000 x 7 = 7000). Two pounds a week is commonly accepted as the maximum rate of weight loss that is healthy. So if you want to lose 5 pounds it’ll take you at least a couple of weeks. Some people here will suggest you “detox”, but all you will lose is water and unless you re-educate yourself to eat healthier and become more active you will only put it back on plus more. So stop wanting things at the snip of a finger and be prepared to make an effort.
