It should be noted that losing 1 pound requires a net reduction of 3,500 calories. So, if you cut back 500 calories a day, you should lose one pound a week. Exercising also plays a dramatic role in weight loss and the calories burned can be counted towards the 3,500 calorie deficit needed to lose a pound.
