A recent study has shown there’s more to the old “it take a 3500 calorie deficit to lose a pound” formula. I was going to write about this, but found that my favorite fat loss guru, Tom Venuto, dove head first into the subject.

3500 Calories To Lose A Pound - Is This Formula All Wrong?

Most fitness conscious people have heard that there are 3,500 calories in a pound of fat, so if you create a deficit of 3500 calories in a week, you lose a pound of weight. If you create a deficit of 7000 calories in a week, you lose two pounds, and so on. Right? Well, not so fast…

Dr. Kevin Hall, an investigator at the National Institute of Health in Bethesda has done some interesting research about the mechanisms regulating human body weight. He recently published a new paper in the International Journal of Obesity that throws a wrench in works of the “3500 calories to lose a pound” idea.

One of the primary reasons some people fail to lose weight utilizing a diet plan is that they either stop at a certain point, or are not motivated enough to continue to its successful conclusion. The G.I. Diet alleviates these worries by simply avoiding all foods that have a high glycemic index.

The glycemic index works in this way: it breaks down foods into sugar which is the source of energy for the body. When consuming foods high in glycemic index, the foods you eat are broken down so quickly that your body signals the need for more food. Conversely, foods which are low in glycemic index slowly break down thus you are satisfied with the meal and are no longer hungry.

The Atkins Nutritional Approach™, as the Atkins diet is commonly known, has worked for several people with weight problems, although the opinion about its efficacy, especially in the long term, is divided among the medical community. Considerable controversy surrounds the program. Most other diets, and there are numberless of them out there, follow the principle of avoiding high-fat foods. But the Atkins diet allows things like red meat, bacon, butter, cheese, eggs and so on, which are all high in fat. Yet, to the utter surprise of everyone who repose their trust in the tried and tested low-fat diets, the Atkins diet works.

The reason is rather simple. The Atkins diet limits the consumption of foods containing large amounts of carbohydrates, such as rice, pasta, white bread, cereal and sugar. Your body burns its excess fat during a process consisting of four phases, which the late Dr. Robert Atkins developed. In his book Dr.Atkins New Diet Revolution, published in 1972, he advised dieters to cut down on only carbohydrates, not both fats and carbohydrates as had been the practice followed until then.
