Understand Calorie Deficit
What Is a Calorie Deficit?
A calorie deficit occurs when you consume fewer calories than your body burns, forcing it to use stored fat for energy, leading to weight loss.
How Deficit Affects Weight Loss
Generally, a deficit of 3,500 calories equals about 1 pound of weight loss. A moderate deficit of 500-750 calories per day is sustainable.
Tips for Healthy Deficits
Focus on nutrient-dense foods, stay hydrated, get adequate sleep, and combine your deficit with regular exercise for best results.
