Title: How Many Calories To Sustain 1 Pound? When I was in college I had a nutrition class that told me how many calories the body needs a day to sustain 1 pound. I forgot how many it is. Does anyone know? Name: Jackie Date: Mar. 6th, 2001 Title: Re: How Many Calories To Sustain 1 Pound? I remember it being 3600. Name: BeStrong Date: Mar. 6th, 2001 Title: Re: How Many Calories To Sustain 1 Pound? 3500 calories = 1 pound Date: Mar. 7th, 2001 Title: Re: How Many Calories To Sustain 1 Pound? Actually, the previous answers are partially correct. 3500 calories is the equivalent energy content of one pound of bodyfat. In other words, in order to burn a pound of stored fat you need to burn an extra 3500 calories in a given time period.
