Having a 500-calorie deficit each day would lead to 1 pound of weight loss in a week. That means in 5 weeks, you would have lost the 5 pounds.

What can you do to lose five pounds in a week?

It is possible to lose five pounds in a week, but most weight loss experts recommend a maximum loss of 2 pounds per week. Fast weight loss sends the body into starvation mode, which actually slows weight loss over the long term. A weight loss of 5 pounds requires a calorie deficit of 17,500 calories. This is difficult to achieve in one week.

If you are a male and weigh 240 pounds on 1500 calories a day how long will it take to lose 50 pounds?

A pound of fat has 3500 calories. Most men require 2500 calories a day. So if you eat 1500 a day instead that's a 1000 kcal deficit. 1000 x 7 = 7000 deficit per week (7000/3500 = 2). You'll lose around 2 pounds of fat a week. At this rate it would take 25 weeks to lose 50 pounds (5 and half months). You'll loose it faster if you burn off extra calories through exercise.
