What is a safe amount of weight to lose weekly?

it is safe to lose 1-3lbs a week with exorcise. You should start by changing your diet so that you are eating 3small meals a day and 2 small snacks in between. believe it or not you will actually lose better this way. I used to be a manager at LA Weight Loss and while i do NOT recommend signing up for this program simply because it is overpriced and you can do it yourself, I do know that this will have a huge impact on your weightloss. Make sure to cut out as much salt as you can and up your water intake as well. It keeps the system flushed and stops you from retaining waterweight. I hope this helped!

1-2 pounds per week is a safe, healthy weight loss. Losing a lot more per week is not only unhealthy, but less likely to be kept off.

Depending on your weight but the best is 2-3 lbs a week to make sure the fat stays away if you lose it to fast it will come back just as fast.

Generally, 1-2 pounds a week is considered a fairly safe level of weight loss, although some specialists recommend no more than a pound a week. Losing weight more rapidly than 1-2.5 pounds a week is not only hard on your body, but a very high percentage of people who lose weight more rapidly than that also put it back on fairly rapidly.

The trick to losing weight and keeping it off is not in any kind of diet, but in gradual life-style changes. This is best accomplished in small steps over a period of time. Building new habits of eating regular, balanced meals and adding regular moderate exercise is the key to losing weight and keeping it off. For specifics, look at any diabetic meal and exercise plan. The so-called "diabetic" diets are actually just well-balanced plans that will work for almost everyone, if followed honestly.

It's best to lose 1.5-3 lbs per week. Any more and you are very likely to put it right back on again after you quit dieting.
