1 kg per week is pretty good and sustainable. Any faster, and you might lose muscle or it'll be too hard to maintain, leading to yo-yo dieting which wastes all your efforts and money. Practical planning means aiming for realistic, healthy goals.
My mother always said 'slow and steady wins the race'. Losing 1 kg a week is a healthy pace, not too fast to shock your body, and not too slow to lose motivation. It shows you are making good, sustainable changes. But do check with a doctor or nutritionist for personalized guidance.
1 kg a week? I'd be ecstatic with that! My weight just laughs at my attempts to diet. Sounds like a really good, achievable goal. Just make sure you're actually eating enough and not just starving yourself, because that's a recipe for disaster (and more sleep deprivation!).
Oh, that sounds like a good, steady pace. I was wondering what a healthy rate of weight loss is. Does 1 kg a week usually involve a big change in diet or just a moderate one? I'm still trying to figure out where to start.
Beta, losing weight slowly is always better for the body. My mother always said 'haste haste lose weight karo'. 1 kg a week is good. Just make sure you are eating proper ghar ka khana and walking daily. No need for crash diets that make you sick.

Hey, that's a fantastic and healthy rate of weight loss, actually! Anything between 0.5 kg to 1 kg per week is considered safe and sustainable by most health professionals. It means you're building habits that you can maintain long-term, which is the real key to keeping the weight off. You're doing great!
Don't panic if sometimes it's less or more, but 1 kg a week on average is perfectly healthy! I was losing weight much faster initially and got worried, but then it settled to about this rate. It means you're creating a sustainable calorie deficit without starving your body. Keep going!
