There's really no absolute science behind dieting. There are all these diet regimens out there, but it all comes down to intake and expenditure. However, the tricky part is to follow through with a consistent exercise program. Here's an example for you. 2.2 lbs of fat is approx 1kg which is approx 9000Kcal. If you want to lose this in one month you must one way or another, have an energy balance of -300 every day for 30 days. That's why it's hard. As for fat distribution, most adipose tissue overly muscle i the subcutaneous region. For men, this tissue distributes primarily around the abdomen, and women the hips. Working one part of you body will not, exclusively burn fat from that region. What you have to do is burn off all the excess calories, and strengthen the muscles to achieve your desired outcome. Hope this helps.
