hfg WEIGHT LOSS
How many times have you read that to lose 1lb you need to create a calorie deficit or shortfall of 3,500? For many years, this formula has been widely accepted by dietitians and scientists (including our experts at HFG). When advising patients on how to lose weight, this dieting wisdom has been translated into the simple message that you should cut 500 calories a day. Do this every day for a week and that’s a calorie saving of 3,500 calories, which will leave the scales showing a drop of 1lb, every week, until you reach your target. So if you have 2st to lose, you should achieve this in 28 weeks!
