Question
hi,
i suddenly put on 3kgs coz im not dancing now. how can i get rid of the 3 kgs? do u think i should jog everyday, 1.6km? will that work?

Answer
Hi Sudha

To lose one pound of body weight you have to omit 3500 calories.  This can be done by diet or exercise or a combination of both.

Jogging is a good way to lose weight.  You can lose approximately 160 calories for each 2 mile jog.  

If you need added information--let me know.

Jackie
