A 25-year old woman weighing 140 pounds would need to walk for over 12 hours at 3 mph or sleep for nearly 60 hours to lose one pound. Alternatively, she could cut 14 candy bars from her weekly diet or reduce her daily calorie intake by 500 calories each day for a week through diet and exercise to lose one pound, which is equivalent to 3500 calories.
