Your body generally burns calories at a steady rate. The average is 1-3 pounds in a week. If you drop down to 500 calories, make sure you increase the amount of water you drink. Crash dieting is hard on the liver and kidneys, who have to filter out the wastes your body makes when it uses your muscle mass and fat reserves to feed itself. I recommend "Body for Life". I've done it and lost 40 lbs, all of my girlfriends who did it lost weight.

500 Calories a day is definately not a healthy diet at all. You'd be starving throughout the day. You probably would lose about 3 pounds a week, but you'd be tired, weak and generally unhealthy.

You lose one pound for every 3000 calories you burn. The average female needs about 1200-1800 calories a day. The more you exercise, the more you burn. So you do the math.

Also, look into what are called, negative calorie foods. These are foods that you can consume and burn more calories simply by digesting them than they actually contain.
