    Answers require stats.

    Also, the maximum for healthy weightloss is 2 pounds per week.

    Four pounds a week would require a caloric deficit of 14,000 cal / week or 2,000 cal per day.

    Without knowing height, weight etc etc and the nature / intensity of the exercise you're planning it's impossible to even begin to guess how many calories may be expended.

    A loss of 4lbs (of fat) per week is a pretty unrealistic goal.
