How ideal is the amount of weight down in a week?
How much weight you lose or lost when you go on a diet depends on many factors. Like, how do you lose weight and how much weight you have before. People who already have a healthy lifestyle may find it harder to lose weight compared to people who really change their lifestyle. Likewise, people who have a smaller body weight may experience a slight weight loss compared to people who have large body weight.
People who are very overweight and never exercise will find it easier to lose weight when they limit their food intake and do regular exercise. This is because the composition of fat in the body is more and easier to burn.
