I'm not saying whether I believe this or don't believe this. However, I'd just like to point out that this site acknowledges the controversial issue of starvation mode.
If you go to your "FOOD" tab and your diary, scroll to the bottom and you'll see the following:
" *Based on your total calories consumed for today, you are eating too few calories. Not only is it difficult to receive adequate nutrition at these calorie levels, but you could also be putting your body into starvation mode. Starvation mode lowers your metabolism and makes weight loss more difficult. We suggest increasing your calorie consumption to 1200 calories per day minimum. "
Of course you'll only see that if "you are eating too few calories".
Just saying....
