Although fad diets may sound appealing, they’re not exactly safe, or, well…effective! Sure, they might be allright to jumpwtart some weight loss, but unless you permanently change your eating habits, your weight will also not premanently change.

Make an exercise plan.

Say you will go swimming leisurely 3 times a week for an hour and a half each time, burning about 1500 calories altogether. You would multiply your BMR (1400) by 7 (you burn 1400 calories each day of the week), and that gives you 9800. This means you will burn 9800 cal
