    Eating too little can affect your weight loss. You may lose more quickly than expected and unfortunately, you may be losing muscle instead of fat.

    Eat more. You only have 13 pounds to lose. There's no reason for you to eat so little. What are your height and weight?

    Even if it doesn't affect your weight loss - I'd be concerned about the lack of nutrition your body is receiving by getting so few calories. I'd rather be healthy and properly fuel my body so it can function properly than trying to exist on the fewest calories possible.
