What's the danger in losing 2kg a week? I seem to reliably lose 1kg a week when I eat 1500 calories or 2000 calories if I'm more active (but in actuality I lose closer to 0.5-0.7kg as I get lax on weighing and snack). I understand that eating 500 kcals would be really low as it's hard to get essential nutrients in so few calories.Therefore, a target of losing 2 to 2.5 kgs of body weight a month would be considered healthy, said Chaturvedi. She further explained that if a person loses more weight than 2-2.5 kgs a month, they might be adding pressure on their internal organs and functions.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, when it comes to weight loss, slow and steady is your best bet - that means shedding about half a kilo per week for someone who want to lose just a few kilos. That can add up to about a one- to two-kilo weight loss in a month.
In general, I don't believe more than a 1% drop in body weight per weeks is a good idea. Rapid weight loss isn't necessarily a problem in itself, but the issues that you may develop along the way are. There's a good chance you'll develop an eating disorder, which is super counterproductive long term.It's best to aim for losing 1 to 2 pounds per week. This is more likely to be a sustainable loss, especially if you achieve it by eating a balanced diet and exercising.
