I only do intermittent fasting (12 hours). Be careful and listen to your body! Good luck in your journey 😄

There is no need to starve to be skinny

How to deal with it? Lift weights 🏋️♀️ and force yourself to eat in a moderate calorie deficit.
It’s that simple 😉

Chris and I have dealt with forcing ourselves to eat more, do it for your health...body adapts in a couple of weeks 😉

I’ve been losing 2-4 pounds per week eating anywhere from 1300-2000 calories per day. It’s all about balance and moderation. I try to eat less on days I am less active. I don’t think what you are doing is sustainable.

I was eating 1500 to lose a pound per week( 40 lb.) , l loss the last 3-5 pounds with 1200 because my weight is already low, now I am in my four week of maintenance with 1700 calories per day.

U will lose the weight as long as your consistent with your calorie deficit 😏

I understand! I lost 45 lbs all together but I find it very hard to eat over 1,000 cal a day. Im usually at about 900. My nutritionist is always telling me to eat more. Im not into meat but I work out 6 days a week n am trying to build so Im attempting to include more protien. I do see more muscle definition.
Keep going but I know those dizzy spells etc so please be careful!

Your body is in starvation mode. You wont loose anything until you are consistently getting much more

Starvation mode does not exist

I think I see people cut calories very low and then do not see losses. May just be anecdotal. We do know the body will adjust to what you are feeding it. Try to find something that works.

‘Starvation Mode' is defined as a concept where your metabolic rate declines during the process of caloric restriction or weight loss to such a degree that further weight loss becomes impossible or weight gain occurs.

Yes body does adapt to less calories and that’s were the damage happens to your metabolism. half of the definition is true, the other half is BS

Yeah, Kevin Hall's study of the Biggest Loser contestants showed that for some of them at least their body had adjusted to a lower calorie level so that to maintain weight or lose again if they gain some they had to continue to keep a really low calorie level which is quite hard in the long run. So it is worth being a bit careful.
