If your daily dose to maintain weight is 2000 CAL:
Day 1 Eaten: 1500 CAL Burned on treadmill: 300 Calories lost: 800
Day 2 Eaten: 1200 CAL Burned on treadmill: 300 Calories lost: 1100
Day 3 Eaten: 1200 CAL Burned on treadmill: 300 Calories lost: 1100
Day 4 Eaten: 1200 CAL Burned on treadmill: 300 Calories lost: 1100
Day 5 Eaten: 1200 CAL Burned on treadmill: 300 Calories lost: 1100
Total Calories lost after 5 days: 5200 CALORIES = 1.48 Pounds of fat loss
This is advice from one of the fat men who wants to be not fat anymore.

This makes sense, however how do the people on the biggest loser drop like 10-20pds a week. I know some of them are like 350pds. But some of the girls are 240~ and can drop 6-10pds in a week.
Are they burning like 1200 CAL a day on the treadmill and other excercises?
