How much do I need to eat to lose weight?

[Anonymous]

My BMR is about 1400.

How many calories do I need to eat to lose weight...at least half a kg in a week.

I usually burn 200-300 calories per day through exercise.

Im really confused!

Thanks for your answers:-D

BMR is the minimum safe amount you can eat without long term health suffering. If you were sedentary (no exercise whatsoever) then you could safely eat a little bit above your BMR. Because you are active and burn 200-300 through exercise, you should be eating about 1800 or so.

And whether or not you can safely lose a kg a week depends on how much you have to lose. If you're obese, it's doable. If you're close to a healthy weight range, not happening.

Oh sorry half a kg a week. It's possible if you have a good amount to lose. But if you have less than like... 20 lbs/10kg to reach your goal I'd say 1/4 kg would be more realistic

That is impossible. Your body will not expend that much weight in a week without a very severe beating even if you fast. At least not in fat.

Losing that much weight in a week is unhealthy. You should be eating 1400 calories a day since you're burning 200-300 per day. Make sure your diet is high in protein.

Why gain weight and become an SSBBW?
