So, in your case, you burn 1782 calories normally. Then, if you eat 1782 calories a day, you will stay the same weight perpetually. But if you want to lose a pound in a week, then you should keep living your life the same, but only eat 1282 calories every day for a week. (That's your calories level minus 500.) Hope that helps!
