- It takes longer to lose weight that it does to gain weight.

- On average, most dieters who are successful at keeping weight off permanently lose about 2 pounds per week. Individuals who have a lot of weight to lose may lose more weight at the beginning of their weight loss plan than dieters who only have a few pounds to lose.

- A two pound per week weight loss is considered a safe, reasonable goal.

- To lose two pounds of weight per week, an individual must cut their daily calories by 1,000 OR exercise more in addition to cutting calories.  

- It takes 3,500 calories to make a pound.  

- A dieter should never dip below 1,250 calories per day and should always seek the advice of their health care giver before striking out on a diet.
