Answer 1

To lose one pound in one week, you would need to consume 500 fewer calories each day. This is because one pound of body weight is generally considered equivalent to approximately 3,500 calories, so to lose a pound in a week, you'd divide 3,500 calories by 7 days, which equals 500 calories per day.
