[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A 2001 review found that VLCD has no serious harmful effect when done under medical supervision, for periods of 8–16 weeks with an average weight loss of 1.5-2.5 kg/week.[26] However, VLCD may increase the risk of developing gallstones if the fat content of VLCD is not sufficient, but data is lacking to know the precise amount of fat that is necessary to avoid gallstones formation.[26][27] Indeed, dietary fat stimulates gall bladder contraction, thus, if following a fat-free VLCD, the bladder does not empty.[26] Another potential side effect is constipation (depending on the fiber content of the diet).[23][28]

VLCD were not found to increase food cravings, and on the contrary, appear to reduce food cravings more than low-calorie diets.[29][/quote]

a very low calorie diet would be like 1000-1200. 700 calories is not a very low calorie diet-it’s starving/eating disorder. [/quote]

very low calories diet is under 800 kcal. there are a lot of papers on this, and it's on that wikipedia link.

1000-1200 is maintenance level calories for someone weighing say 110-120 lbs. [/quote]

yes…wikipedia. Where everyone should get their medical info. [/quote]
