You're a 25 year old male eating roughly 1400 calories? That's not nearly enough. You may want to consider eating more.0

Now this method worked for me and we not all the same so I was just telling u how I did it no fancy diets just exercise and healthy food if u over 16 stone there's a good chance this will work0 -
Eating under the bmr is not enough u have to do the exercise aswell0

No, eating under your BMR is enough. Your BMR is the amount of calories your body needs to keep you alive if you are in a coma. Since you wake up and go to work or make food you are burning more calories than your BMR. That means you are at a deficit.
For you, you are at a very large deficit, which can cause more harm than good in the long run.0 -

Bear Grylls' show is faked and some of the survival information they give you will get you killed.
Each person requires a different number of calories to sustain their body weight. This is their TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure). Your TDEE is your BMR (the amount of calories you would burn if you are in a coma), plus your non-exercise activity calorie burn, plus your exercise calorie burn. If you eat less than your TDEE you'll lose weight.
Here are some calculators that help approximate your TDEE:
