He reasons that a liter (about a quart) of water weighs 1000 g, whichis equivalent to 580,000 cal, or 580 kcal, of heat when lost as sweat.Therefore, instead of reducing his diet by 580 kcal/day, he believesthat losing a liter of sweat every day in the sauna will cause him tolose about a pound of fat a week. Will this approach work? Explain.
