Answer 2

1

Answer 3

you will only gain weight..

you need your full calories

besides its not the calories, it's what you eat

stay away from all Trans-fats

eat 6 meals a day

eat animal proteins (take twice as much energy to break them down)
eggs are good and drink milk

eat your vegtable and everything else, stay away from candies.

excersize do aerobics too.

lift weights... 1 lbs of muscle will eat 50 more calories a day

I know your a women but your not going to bulk up if you lift.. trust me..you don't have the right hormones and if that were true every guy and his neighbor would be ripped..not the case

bottom line... eat healthy and excersize

don't just expect to loose weight by starving yourself, it won't work.

it may short term but you body will conteract it's starvation by slowing your metabolism and storing more fats... this is a common thing to eat less but it really only hurts you more.

it will make it harder to keep the weight off in the long run.

Our bodies need food and you can't get around that, you just need to find a way to get it running the most efficent way possible.

no short term solutions will work in the long run..



eat smart and excercise .......bottom line
oh... and eat natural... even with things like butter, because or bodies know how to process natural foods better.

Answer 4

Well to burn a pound of fat its 3,500 calories. So if you do the math you can figure it out. Also i don't think that burning a 1000 cal a day is healthy, or just eating a 1000 cal healthy. Also it is unhealthy to loose more than 1-2 pounds a week, at max in a week you should loose 3, but even 3 is a lot for the body to handle. Your body might not get used to it and you might end up gaining it back.

*hope i helped

Answer 5

all you will lose is water weight and muscle plus you will dramatically slow down your metabolism which will make fat loss in future soooo much harder. all you lost will come back (and some more) as soon as you start eating normal.
people in coma get about that many calories a day.
find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried - no junk food.

Answer 6

I would not recommend dropping below 1200 calories per day and even that depends on your current weight & activity level. When you take in too few calories, your body goes into starvation mode and your metabolism slows down.

Answer 7

Depends on what those calories are? If it is sugar and fat like a donut. Your not going to lose any weight.
If it is a apple and vegetable soup a lot of weight.
All bread, not so much.
So calories are not all that count.
They found that people who ate a lot of vegetables like salad bars and vegetable soup. even with high calorie salad dressing lost more weight than those who ate sandwitches.
Which was mostly bread.

Answer 8

Reduce your stress. Your stress hormone cortisol could be activated by extremely low-calorie weight loss plans, intense training, lack of snooze and day-to-day worries, which ends in a spike in glucose levels as part of your blood. More worryingly, it can contribute to blocked arteries and fat build up around your internal organs, putting you in danger of diabetes and heart disease. The one prescription for this is to… chill out.

Answer 9

Operate the 20 minute rule. Eat the portion-controlled meal then, even if you're hungry afterwards, wait for 20 minutes and discover if you still do. Nine times from 10, you won’t. If one does, eat 10 per cent a lot more.

Answer 10

woah! only 1000?
if you're a man, around a pound a day or more
if you're a woman, slightly less but still it would be from 6-8 pounds per week for a woman and 7-12 pounds for a man per week

Answer 11

Set up reminders on your pc or phone every hour to encourage yourself to get up, walk around, in addition to stretch.
