    For the whole eating under a 1000 calories, look...you are going to do what you want but check out the link below at some of the stories of people who thought it was okay (especially because they weren't "feeling" hungry a lot of times) but ended up regretting it. These links are just information to give you options. I'm not preaching or trying to tell you or anyone what is the "right way"...just throwing some info your way is all.

    If you want, check out this link by MFPer Heliotsdan - http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/654536-in-place-of-a-road-map-2-0-revised-7-2-12

    It'll give you a detailed walkthrough (with pictures even) on finding your TDEE and calculating what you should be eating.

    Also, if you are worried about the calorie intake, I also suggest you read this thread that has numerous people who met their goals and are maintaining. Some for years and they also provide their calorie intake and how often they work out.

    And if you are looking for foods to help with upping your calorie intake, I suggest checking this out:

    Can someone please explain to me why people are so confused when they are so hungry? Why do people ask what they need to do? I know our public education system isn't what it used to be, but don't people know when you are ACTUALLY REALLY HUNGRY the solution is to EAT!? Oh, and the reason you are probably really hungry is because either that day or the day before you DIDN'T EAT ENOUGH. Jesus H Christ people......

    You should keep your calories consistent. I used to do that a lot while losing weight. If I ate too much one day, I would crash diet the next. It was a vicious cycle and not healthy at all. Now I just focus on keeping my calories the same number no matter what. If I have a bad day, I will just start fresh the next day and focus on being healthy.

    your body is just going to go into starvation mode real soon if it is not already there. That is where the body will not release any fat because it knows it is not being fed enough calories so it holds onto the fat to sustain.

    You need to eat 6 small balanced meals a day. Aim for at least 1200 cals a day. Even without exercise, you should lose weight that way.

    800 daily calories will also aid in losing muscle. You don't want that do you?

    Because you are only eating enough calories to feed a 30 pound child. Adults need an absolute minimum of 1200 calories a day (on average. It's okay to fast every now and again) to prevent brain damage and chronic disease.

    Not sure if troll... or serious.

    I think there's a small clue in her last post.
    I actually found it quite amusing and entertaining.
