Question: I lose about 500 calories running 5 times a week.How much weight could I lose in that week?
I don't know how calories work when trying to lose weight.Can anyone please help me on how calories work? =]
I don't own a scale and unfortunately the gym I go to also does not own a scale.I know I lose about 500 calories in one day and run/walk about 2 1/2 miles a day.I am losing about 500 calories doing this.How much weight could I lose in a week doing this?

Answers:

1-3 pounds. 500 calories burned from exercise, plus all the calories you burn doing other activities, probably adds up to around 2000-2200. You need to burn 3500 calories to lose one pound. Your BMR is most likely around 1400, so burning a total of 2200 calories a day. Net burn is 800 calories a day times 7 days a week=5600. If you eat healthy, around 1200-1400 calories a day, closer to 1200, you could lose up to 3 pounds in a week.
