Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It is recommended that you aim to lose 0.5 to 1.0 lbs of total body weight per week during a diet phase, as any faster than that and it suggests you are losing muscle tissue. While you may be tempted to push for 1.5lbs or more loss per week, it often comes at the cost of losing muscle.

Detailed explanation-2: -To lose weight and maintain muscle mass, you need to go into a caloric deficit and exercise regularly. Cardio, strength training, and especially compound movements are key to losing fat and building muscle. Taking it slow and giving your body time to recover is imperative.

Detailed explanation-3: -When you’re trying to lose weight, it’s natural to want it to happen very quickly. But people with gradual and steady weight loss (about 1 to 2 pounds per week) are more likely to keep the weight off.
