This question cant really be answered as easily as saying 3500 Kcals in a pound of fat. It depends on what kind of fat you are talking about. Fat from food is 9 Kcals per gram. So it would be 453.59237x9=4082.33133 now if you are talking about how much energy is required to burn off one lbs of body fat, that would be more around 3500 Kcals per pound but that is also based on the idea that all you are burning is fat. Most people burn muscle, fat, and other tissue during weight loss.
