How many calories should i eat each day to loose 1.5-2 pounds a week?
You should eat not more than 2000 calories every day. If it is difficult for you, then you should take hunger suppresants, like this: http://www.phenterminedispensary.com/t-how-to-use-phentermine.aspx
They are said to be very effective.
rachael, August 15th? You’re not getting married then, are you? Perhaps going to Hawaii? Each pound of weight is really close to 3500 calories. So if you want to lose 2 pounds a week (that’s losing weight at a fairly rapid clip, you know), you’d have to have a calorie deficit of 7000 calories, or eating 1000 calories a day less than you are now, assuming that you follow the usual American diet of about 2000 calories a day. 1000 calories a day is not much. You’ll feel hungry, tired, and grumpy, you’ll think about food all the time, and sometimes your will will break and you’ll binge. Obviously, I don’t recommend 1000 calories a day unless you are really, really determined. Obsessive, even. Instead, resign yourself to either 1. a slower rate of weight loss, or 2. Adding jogging/running to your daily schedule. If you do 2, you’ll be able to lose weight at the rate you’d like to, if you jogged or ran about an hour a day, which would be about 5 or 6 miles, which would be 500 or 600 calories
