- Let's then take muscle gained out of the equation
- Let's also say as you get thinner, and need to eat 1250, you burn 2250, still burn 7000 cal / week deficit.
- so therefore you wont' have lost 50 lbs in 25 weeks.
But is the theory of 7000 cal deficit in a week, over time, like over 6 months, should be showing a 1.5lb to 2lb scale loss for anyone? That it's just math and science and biology. And it should work?
