Carbs, Carbs, Carbs?

I've lost quite a bit at an intake of 2,100 calories a day. Does your body adapt to what your deficit was and now you need a "new" deficit number?

Curiosity - resting heart rate

I’m only eating about 1,200 calories a day. I’m not hungry. Is this bad?

It’s not good it’s not healthy and all the effort I put into exercising is ruined due to the calories in wine. I’m starting off not drinking Monday to…

I heard that eating clean makes you feel better...
When is that supposed to take effect? Has anyone tried it? Did you feel better and if so, when? I basically feel like garbage all the time. I've only been eating clean for a week and I know that it's probably too soon to see any results... I just want to know where the light at the end of my tunnel is.
