Weight loss will be slower, but I think more lasting. Most of us don't make big changes well. To lose 2 pounds weekly you need to have a 1000 calorie deficit daily. Creating a 250-500 calorie deficit isn't so difficult. In fact, I think the reason most diets fail is that they require you to do things that aren't doable over the long haul.wosneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18118178432203615500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704099378996868867.post-14601350021748299922009-12-26T12:31:14.598-05:002009-12-26T12:31:14.598-05:00When I started losing weight there were many weeks...When I started losing weight there were many weeks when I lost not a single ounce.

My only nitpi...Thank you! That was a good article.<br /><br />My only nitpicking point would be that the 1-2 pounds a week is an /average/ loss. Sometimes my body will lose 1/2 a pound, sometimes it'll gain a couple ounces. Then the next week I'll be down 3 pounds without having done anything special. The body has its own schedule of when it will let go of pounds.The Merryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09660495393832517684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704099378996868867.post-66652301311248008912009-12-23T13:59:56.186-05:002009-12-23T13:59:56.186-05:00I agree that slow weight loss is what we should al...I agree that slow weight loss is what we should all strive for.
