    The amount of misinformation on these forums is staggering! Everyone is so scared of "starvation mode" and your body supposedly eating muscle instead of fat that it is sickening. If you are overweight and have fat to spare, then you are not in starvation mode, and you won't be in starvation mode until your fat store is used up. You could eat 0 calories a day for a while if your are 50 pounds overweight, and your body will get it's calories from your fat. That's not recommended though, because you need healthy nutrients in order to function properly. And yes, some muscle is lost when dieting down, but you can do things to prevent that like mixing in strength training with cardio and eating high quality proteins. Just listen to your body and ignore all of the dire warnings people spew here about starvation mode, and keep at it!
