My suggestion- up it to 1500 calories, exercise harder and drink water even when you aren't thirsty and if your metabolism is good then expect 2-3 lbs per week. Anything more is just water weight. ]
You might lose a pound every week. May I make a suggestion? When you say exercising moderately, is that running for 30 minutes? If you maintained a low-carbohydrate diet, ran or did cardiovascular activity 4-5 times a week and substituted all other beverages for water, you could see major difference in two to three weeks. But this shouldn't just be a "diet" because "diet" is only temporary, to keep the weight off you need to make it a way of life. Hope I helped, good luck! -Angel ]
That's sort of impossible to answer, it depends on how much you eat now, the type of exercise, the percent of calories you're getting from fat, how much exercise you used to do, all that. Everyone has different metabolism.
A good weight loss diet will have you losing 1-2 pounds per week. Anything more than that and odds are you're not losing fat, so it won't work in the long term, you just have to try your plan and see what happens. ]
