3 kilograms: per week is far too fast for most people! Need to find out how much you normally consume. The calorie intake must be lower than the calories burned. There are 3,500 calories per pound.

That's unrealistic.: sounds like you're trying to fit into a certain size dress for a wedding. We don't recommend losing more than 2 pounds per week for long-term success. Give up sugar and wheat flour for starters. Cut out the soda and don't skip meals. Each small high-protein high-fiber feedings 4 to 6 times daily and drink plenty of water. Exercise 150 minutes per week and you should lose weight. No sugar/flour!!
