If you alter your lifestyle (eating or exercise) so that your body is burning 500 less calories a day, you will lose 1lb a week. That is a couple cookies less and a half hour of most types of aerobic exercise a day, and you're there.
To lose one solid pound, you need to burn 3,500 more calories than you consume.
