About the virus. CMV is a member of the herpesvirus group, which includes herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2, varicella-zoster virus (which causes chickenpox), and Epstein-Barr virus (that can cause infectious mononucleosis). The virus may remain dormant or sleeping within the body over a long period.
You Need to Burn 7,000 Calories to Lose a Pound, Not 3,500. If youâve ever calculated how much weight youâll lose by cutting out a certain number of calories a day, you know the most famous equation in dieting: 1 pound of fat = 3,500 calories. Too bad that equation is wrong.
Depends how many calories you are eating! To lose one pound, you must burn off 3,500 more calories than you eat. So, if you eat 2,000 calories per day for 7 days, that's 14,000 calories per week. To lose a pound, you must do enough exercise to burn 17,500 calories per week.
