in Health and Weight Loss
Although it is not recommended in terms of overall health but for fat loss i think it is easier to track those calories from canned or processed food since the calories are provided. I know that some company might waived out the calories if the macros is below than 4g and this is a huge difference when it comes to 4g of fat which will give 36kcal. But if at the end of the day you give add additional 20% of total calories intake to your diary then it should be fine.

Im 174cm 22 y/o M currently weight 62.3kg with around 15% BF, my target is to get ripped (7% BF) before i start to bulk up. I still got fat around my tummy but i know it took time. Since this cutting phase is temporary, can i just eat those food to reach my goals? i.e packed cookies, canned sardines.

My current daily calories intakes is 500kcal-1000kcal per day and i know it is insanely low but through out the day i just play computer games with 1 hour weightlift at gym so it is fine since im not moving at all. i stuck at 62-63kg for 3 to 4 days but i willing to wait for another 2 more days to see the scale moving before i "pull my hair off".

Please give some advise or recommendation TQ

    Advise? EAT MORE. EAT FOOD. You're roughly, what 5'8"? and weigh 136 and are eating what a child eats in order to lose more.
    Sorry, not what you asked, but yowsa.

    It's not "fine".

    Eat way more. 1000 is lower than recommended for women, and you're already towards the lower end of the BMI chart. If you keep up with eating that amount, you won't have the energy for lifting.

    I'm a woman also 5"8, and you're roughly at my goal weight.
    I echo what the others are saying..... Eat more or else you will more than likely burn out eventually. And you won't have to pull your hair out, as it might fall out all by itself, which is sometimes a side effect of VLCD

    What are you talking about? Eat a lot and work on gaining muscle, like two times that. I didn't take an in depth look but it doesn't seem like you have fat to lose.

    Look at his other posts. I think he's an actual poster. Who doesn't have a clue.
    He's posted on several other threads about eating junk food and wanting to get "ripped".

    That^^^^ Exactly that^^^^

    Anyone that comes into this thread and tells you any different is completely misguided.

    Also, it will be physically impossible for you to get down to 7% body with your muscle mass because you will basically look completely emaciated. You don't have the necessary lbm to achieve a ripped 7% body.

    but isn't that as long as someone in calories deficit he/she will lose fat?

    We get that. But if you take in too few calories--and you are--your body starts shutting down nonessential processes like nail and hair growth. You will eventually start seeing your hair fall out, and it may not grow back.

    Nope. A deficit will result in weight loss some of which will be fat. Some of it will also be muscle including heart muscle.

Your words here kinda hurt me a lot.

    Don't be hurt, we want you to be healthy. You don't need to eat junk food. You just need to eat-more, whatever. Eat your maintenance calories at least. Have you calculated them?

    English is not your first language, I presume. Perhaps I misunderstood your posts. But that's what I understood.

    yes, is around 1900kcal per day and that is 57kg with BF that is below 10%. From the view of BMI i will be nearly underweight with that goal but that is my goal before i start to bulk up and gain muscle.
