For realistic and healthy weight loss, how much kg should i expect to lose in a month? -

Also, is consuming 2, 700 cals a day (i weigh 73 kg) and 3 cardio exercises a week enough?

well, i lost 100 pounds in a year so i guess it would be bout 8 pounds. gee that wasn t so hard to figure out

If you are to calculate anything then you should first start with calculating your Body Mass Index (BMI), this is your mass in kilos divided by your height, in meters, which is squared, i. e. BMI= mass/height2.Now, what the medical books say is that anything above 25 on the BMI scale is overweight and above 30 is obese. This tends to vary quite a bit, as the doctors and scientists put their brains to it, but it is good to have an idea.Next, the biochemical and nutritional medical books state that a normal, healthy person should loose on average between 4 and 6kg per month. Anything that is more that this could disturb the metabolic rate of the body. However, it is good to keep in mind that loosing the first 4kg might happen even faster than this since it is the fluid that can be found in all the organs, mostly in the liver, subsequent weight loss might occur slower than this.
