How Many Weight Can You Lose in 2 Months?

 Hello, dear reader. I will provide you with an answer to your question using information based on human physiology widely available online, along with a simple calculation.

Before we get into that, let me share My Simple Strategy for Losing Weight without stress, food cravings, counting calories, or significantly reducing the amount of food.

Now, let's dive into your question. In a span of two months, it's possible to lose approximately 8.5 kg (18.7 lbs) of body weight.

How Many Weight Can You Lose in 2 Months?


In the photo, you can see the remarkable physical transformation that accompanies an 18-pound weight loss in 2 months by Hope Allen, the creator behind the popular HopeScope YouTube channel. Her personal experience serves as an excellent visual demonstration of how the body can change and evolve through dedicated efforts toward weight loss.

To achieve weight loss, you need to create an energy deficit in your body by reducing the number of calories you consume. It is highly desirable to maintain a feeling of fullness while also avoiding a reduction in food intake.

Did you know that human fat contains about 7700 calories? By reducing your daily calorie intake by 1000 calories, you can expect to lose around 1 kg (2.2 lbs) in one week. This can be calculated as follows: 1000 calories x 7 days = 7000 calories, which corresponds to almost 1 kg (2.2 lbs) of fat.

Therefore, over a period of approximately 8 weeks and 4 days, that is 2 months, you can expect to lose around 8.5 kg (18.7 pounds) of body weight.

During the first week of reducing calorie intake, you may experience a higher rate of weight loss, potentially surpassing 1 kg (1 lb). This initial weight loss can be attributed to the depletion of glycogen stores in your muscles (muscle fuel), which release water along with it.

A weight loss rate of about 1 kg (2.2 lbs) per week is generally considered safe, and if you are obese, it can contribute positively to your health.

Of course, you can try to reduce calories even more and lose weight faster, but it will be harsh for your mind and body. You may feel like sh..t. So I strongly do not recommend doing so.

Remember to love yourself and take good care of your body. Wishing you the best of luck on your weight loss journey!

Dorian Yates 'Less is better!'

There has been much debate and many "spears broken" among theorists regarding the frequency of training in bodybuilding. However, my point of view has the advantage of being proven in practice. Once, when I wanted to know how often I needed to go to the gym, I looked at the blisters on my own hands and found the answer. As we know, the skin on your hands becomes rough when you regularly lift weights. Blisters form as a protective reaction of the skin, but if you overexert your hands with a barbell every day, your skin can't withstand it and may turn into bleeding wounds. Therefore, your skin needs rest, and during that time, it can repair the damaged areas.

Kai Greene parted ways with his coach Oscar Ardennes

Why Kai Greene left Oscar? Interesting news excited fans of Kai Green and the bodybuilding world in general: Kai Greene decided to stop working with his coach Oscar Ardennes. Oscar and Kai's cooperation started before the Arnold Classic in 2009, although they had previously known each other. The cooperation immediately paid off — that was the victory in Columbus, which contributed to the continuation of the tandem. This is true, but things didn't go as expected. Yes, there was a victory at Arnold Classic in 2010, but many began to notice that Kai Greene showed muscle quality not as good as before, and since then he has not shown the best condition. However, the steady growth of muscle mass goes really well. They say that Ardennes's training method is focused on muscle mass. Mr. Olympia 2010 went not good for Kai Greene. Oscar Ardennes didn't want to admit his own mistakes as Kai Greene's personal coach in preparation for the competition. Perhaps stress and other f...

Bodybuilding Body Types: Ectomorph, Mesomorph, Endomorph

Which Type Do You Belong to? Human genetics determine many of the inherent characteristics that we are born with and cannot be changed later in life. However, through regular training and exercise, it is possible to overcome some of the limitations imposed by our genes. In 1940, William Sheldon introduced three distinct body types in his work "The Varieties of Human Physique", which is still used in medicine, science, and sports today. These three body types are known as ectomorph, mesomorph, and endomorph. However, it is important to note that these body types are generalizations and not everyone will fit neatly into one category, as most people are a combination of these body types, with only some aspects of each present in their overall physique.
