A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who wants to lose 0.9 kg (2 lb) of body fat per week. The nurse knows that 0.45 kg (1 lb) of body fat is equal to 3,500 calories. The nurse should instruct the client to reduce his daily caloric intake by how many calories? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Explanation
To lose 0.9 kg (2 lb) of body fat per week, the client needs to create a weekly caloric deficit of 7,000 calories (3,500 x 2).
This means that the client needs to consume 7,000 calories less than he burns in a week.
To achieve this, the client needs to reduce his daily caloric intake by 1,000 calories (7,000 / 7).
For example, if the client normally consumes 2,500 calories per day, he should reduce it to 1,500 calories per day.
