Is a week of eating just approx 1100 calories with or without exercise gonna affect my weight? blah blah i know that starvation mode is an iffy topic but can my metabolism really be affected just after a week?

    Technically about everything affects your metabolism. If you eat less food you metabolize less food, for example. Will it have any long term, negative effect? I say no. If it did, humans would've died off long ago.
