[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other thing that no one has mentioned is that if you don’t get enough calories then your body goes into survival mode and reduces your metabolism bc it thinks you’re starving yourself. [/quote] No, no it doesn't. Starvation mode is a myth. Metabolism will slow a little, but it it negligible and not eating enough it NOT the reason you can't lose weight. I have found that people who restrict too much can't lose weight because they restrict too much a few days a week and that causes then to over eat the other days or they do well on their diet M-F and use that as an excuse to overeat on the weekend. So in the end their calories even out and they maintain their weight. [/quote]
