Can a slim person still lose weight (1kg) if they burn 7,700 calories?

[Anonymous]

1 kg (2.2 lbs) is about 7,777 calories. That means in order to lose the 1 kg I would need to burn those calories.
My BMR is around 1450. Therfore if I work out everyday and burn about 500-600 calories how long will it take me to lose the 1 kg?
Also I am already slim so will it still be possible to lose the 1 kg to get to my goal weight?
I will eat about 1300 calories per day.

I was over weight and tried so many things. Different things work for different people and I was lucky enough to find one that worked for me. I lost 18 pounds in one month without much exercise and it's been a life changer. I'm a little embarrased to post my before and after photos here but if anyone actually cares to hear what I've been doing then I'd be happy to help in any way. Just shoot me an email at [e-mail] and I'll show you my before and after photos, and tell you about how things are going for me with the stuff I've tried. I wish someone would have helped me out when I was struggling to find a solution so if I can help you then it would make my day

Approximately 12-14 days, to answer your question.

However, the more important question, is why do you want to lose weight if you are already slim?
At this point you might lose muscle mass with your dieting even if you work out. It's not worth it.

Thanks for your reply. Becuase I usually am 57 kg and the past few weeks I have been eating a lot of unhealthy food and gained 3 kg ( i know not a lot ) but I dont like it...I just want my clothes to fit properly again...right now I weigh 59 kg and want to lose at least 1-2 kg by the end of the month...its my goal.
Okay, I will take that into consideration...thanks!

I can understand that. It's like the weight you put on while on vacation. But remember too much yo-yo dieting can make you lose muscle mass permanently. So try not to do this too often.

[Asker]

Exactly. Most of it I gained on my vacation. Okay, thanks letting me know:-)

It depends on where the calories are coming from. Sometimes all you lose is muscle, which in turn causes you to burn fewer calories, even while at rest. Burning fat while keeping muscle is hard.

This is such an elite question. You must be super hot if you're finicky over 2.2 lbs. Awesome.

It won't that that long lol.

[Asker]

haha...im a bit of a perfectionist...
Nope..its just I gained weight from eating too much unhealhy food during my last holiday...Im usually 57 kg and no im 59...so trying to get back to my normal weight so my clothes fit better gain.

You can burn away if you want. There is no limit to how much you can actually burn minus the organs and the like.

Can i ask, if you are already slim, why you would like to lose weight?

[Asker]

For a personal reason. I dont HAVE to but I would like to get back to the weight I once was.

[Paritosh23]

Ohh okay , so you can lose the weight - 1 kg.. but you need to follow the diet for a longer period of time, because its difficult to maintain the weight as you must already know :)

your weight varies more than 1kg from morning to evening. you can allways lose weight if you burn more calories than you take in.

[bubbletrouble]

You could but you're just going to gain it all back since you lost it so quickly

[Asker]

But once I reach my goal weight...I should not gain it back if I eat healthy. I hope! :-P

It seems like such a minute amount of weight to worry about. I think your weight varies about that much in a day. My weight varies anywhere from 2-5 lbs in a day surprisingly.
