You're too aggressive with your weight loss. This usually results in burning yourself and giving up. Take it slow, be patient and make a lifestyle change for good.0

I think I'm doing pretty well, actually. I was just looking for something to do other than going on the bike. I'm not tired, not starving, so yea, I'd like to go exercise for awhile.

Even if she didn't burn out/give up because of lack of nutrition/energy, she'd really be setting herself up for other serious medical issues/severe deficiencies.

I can't recommend burning that much more! Have you calculated what your body needs just to survive?? Also.. keep in mind that if you are eating too less of calories - your body will think you are starving and actually slow down your metabolism to protect itself - so under eating will actually deter weight loss. You will get better results with eating right.

You feel good today. You are about 5 days in. She's talking about long term.0 -

I understand the desire to lose all the weight as fast as possible. However, the weight didn't go on overnight and it's going to take time to get it off.
Also, consider the fact that losing weight fast can result in larger amounts of loose skin than if you lose weight at a slower pace (or so I've heard).
I'm not trying to be mean or attack you, but unless you're under supervision of a doctor what you're doing is very unhealthy. Not to mention you could be setting yourself up for binges, giving up, malnutrition and possible an ED (exercise bulimia comes to mind).0 -

I appreciate your concern, and I have a loose goal of 1,000 cal. My 1,000 cal goal is if I sit on my booty and do nothing all day. If I get hungry after my exercise, I'll eat something healthy. Its as simple as that. I just asked for excise ideas aside from riding my bicycle. Thanks0 -

Instead of being stubborn and thinking you know it all, I suggest listening to people who have been here a long time and have been successful. You are consistently eating less than 1200 calories a day. The body needs a minimum of 1200 calories daily in order to ensure proper nutrition. If you continue to eat the way you are, you will run into problems down the road. You aren't invincible.0 -
3 hours of intense, challenging exercise, without rest.0

I'll just leave this here:Problems with extremely low calorie intake (most of this stuff doesn't happen right away, but later down the road...its kind of like how some smokers end up with emphysema or lung cancer and some don't):
- Malnutrition
"Inadequate caloric intake can lead to malnutrition over time. According to MedlinePlus, malnutrition occurs when the diet does not allow the intake of a sufficient amount of nutrients. A diet with extremely low calories does not allow for adequate consumption of the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants the body needs to perform its daily life processes. Vitamin deficiencies can lead to various problems, including fatigue, impaired wound healing and extreme weight loss." *1*
- Slower Metabolism (takes a while, but does happen)
"Metabolism is the rate at which the body burns fuel for energy. The basal metabolic rate is the minimum number of calories necessary to perform daily basic functions such as breathing, growth, cellular repair and digestion, according to MayoClinic.com. When calories are restricted over a long period of time, the body will compensate by holding on to the few calories that are consumed. Instead of burning calories freely, the body will perform basic life processes more slowly to conserve fuel. This can actually lead to weight gain." *1*
- Physical Changes
"A decrease in caloric intake may cause positive physical changes at first, especially in individuals with extra weight to lose. However, an extreme decrease in caloric intake can cause negative physical changes over time. Once individuals lose excess weight, calorie restriction can cause various physical problems. The Calorie Restriction Society indicates that decreasing daily calories too much can lead to reduced bone mass, fatigue, sensitivity to cold temperatures and food obsession due to extreme hunger. The CRS recommends gradual calorie reduction over a period of at least six months to avoid some of the side effects of low caloric intake." *1*
-Side Effects:
"Let’s look at some of the uncomfortable side effects of very low calorie diets:
Dry mouth
Headache
Dizziness
Fatigue and weakness
Cold intolerance
Dry skin and nails
Menstrual irregularities in women
Hair loss
Constipation/diarrhoea
Irritability and confusion
Inability to concentrate
Muscle breakdown
Problems with nerve and muscle function due to an imbalance in minerals and electrolytes
Conditions such as osteoporosis, anaemia, gout, gallstones, clinical depression, heart problems, renal failure, and liver disease" *2*

Who told you to eat 1000 calories a day? Was it a medical doctor? If not, you should NOT be eating so few calories. The only time you should be eating less than 1200 calories is when under the supervision of an MD (and even then, most won't recommend it).0 -

No you didn't eat enough. Trying to burn off everything you eat is unhealthy. You can argue against science and common sense, your you can listen and learn. The choice is yours.0 -

I know you asked for exercise ideas, but it wouldn't be right of us to sit back and not make you aware of the potential harm eating this way could could do. Just trying to be helpful.0 -

While that may be true, it would be wrong for me not to point out that what your trying to do is dangerous. I wouldn't feel right if I just let someone do something harmful to themselves without trying to warn them of the harm.

Probably not. It's very likely that only two groups of people burn 1000 calories in a workout:
> athletes.
> people who use equipment that way over-estimates expenditure.
OP should set more attainable goals and stick to them long term.0 -
Most of your profile is closed, but judging by the amount of weight you have left to lose, and to lose 1-2 lbs per week, you are eating far too few calories per day. Did you read any of the links we gave you?0
