Even after trying too hard, they feel that they are not doing enough to lose that stubborn fat from their body. If you search for weight loss tips on Google, you will get millions of results citing the miracle drink, miracle exercise, etc. to lose weight in 7 days, 14 days, 30 days, and hat not.
Before we begin It's the most crucial step before you even start your weight loss journey. It's to find the cause of weight gain. Despite overeating, stress-induced overeating, lack of sleep, etc., there are certain medical conditions like Hypothyroidism that may lead to abnormal weight gain. It's better to get a complete body check-up done to rule out any medical condition.
Calorie Deficit
This term is the first thing every diet consultant will tell you when you embark on your weight loss journey. A calorie deficit means having fewer calories than your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR). BMR is the metabolic rate of your body at rest (or in simple terms, the calories you burn while you are resting).
If we do the math, 1 pound or 1 lb of body fat is comprised of 3500 calories. So in order to lose 1 lb of fat in a week (7 days), a calorie deficit of 500 calories per day is needed.
