    If some of you actually read the thread you will see more current questions or comments. So while the OP was necro, not all of the questions are.

    I am 5'3, desk job and I eat 1800-2000 a day, and am losing and body is recomping.

    Food is not your enemy. The one thing I dislike about MFP, is the fact that it is stuck on the whole only way to lose is 1200 calories. And carbs are not your enemy either, I eat carbs, lots of carbs too.

    Anyone saying they eat one meal a day sounds misleading. Maybe you have one rounded meal a day but how many times to do you eat thru-out the day?

    every once in a while, i will hit the gym after having fasted, then go eat a huge meal (lunchtime) and that's all i'll have for the entire day. most of the time, it's chipotole because i have alot of food allergies and they are allergy-friendly for me. the bowl i get is about 1200-1300 calories (i get double meat + guac and both kinds of beans and rice) i feel so full, i am not even close to wanting dinner, so i'll skip and not eat until the following day. can't really answer your question on how much weight i lost, etc. b/c i don't do it enough to warrant tallying results. although i haven't gained weight, so i guess it's not detrimental.

    Occasionally I will only eat one meal a day...but usually only when I am going to a resturant and know I will be eating 1500-2000 calories in one meal. If I'm only eating one meal, I generally do not restrict the calories for that meal.

    Have you never heard of Interim Fasting? There are plenty of people who eat only one meal a day, but those people who do have meals that are 1500+ calories.
