    weight loss vs fat loss.

    weight is fat and muscle loss regardless of how small people get.

    My only question for those eating 1200 are you tracking your macros and micros? probably not.

    but we are all adults it's a choice we all have to make. If you prefer to eat 1200 or lower for an extended period of time, get that it is a probability that it will damage you (might not be immediate but it will)

    and if you continue on too low calories the damage is compounded as you age.

    This^

    What people don't realize is, while fat + muscle loss leads to a smaller you - it also leads to a doughy or puffy look. I want to look slim & firm, not just be a smaller version of the current jiggly me.

    People who retain lean muscle can be at the top of the "healthy weight range" for their height & feel good about how they look. But when you've gotten to the bottom of that "healthy weight range" for your height, and still don't like how you look.........that's lean muscle loss.
