    Seems like you're making yourself manic. This stuff isn't that hard. Eat over your BMR and under your TDEE that's going to be true for a lot of people.

    I do cardio Monday, Wednesday, Friday, burning 200-300 calories each time, am a waitress Monday-Friday from 10am to 1pm do weight training Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and I am losing weight eating 2500 calories (about 0.5-1lbs a week) and I'm now 5'8 and 140lbs. You DO need to eat to lose weight ,or as soon as you go back to maintaining your weight you're going to gain it all back again.

    OP you have every right to screw your body up as much as you want. Go right ahead.

    Signed the vegetarian who generally avoids processed foods, eats healthy AND struggles to stay at around 2000 calories a day. Eating lots is easy! What can I say, it's a talent. On the bright side I've actually lost lots of weight by not being delusional about what I eat and what exercise I do.

    1 hour per day in the gym is enough. Maximum 6 days, ideally 5. Strength train 2-3 days per week, rest cardiovascular. You'll exhaust yourself and not be be able to go at all! A good calorie amount would probably be around 1600. When the body is under stress is may lose for a while, but then it will stop. Need to be balanced about it. Know that's hard when you just want the weight off now, bit what your doing is counterproductive. 2 hours exercise every day and only eating 1000 calories per day is a fast track to making yourself feel very crappy! I've been there, burnt myself out and now I'm suffering, slowly building my way back up. Not fun!

    wtf? Metabolism type? There are different types of metabolism now? I kinda thought most of us humans processed food in the same way?

    Your body enters starvation mode when you don't consume enough calories for a prolonged period of time. Not eating enough makes it harder to lose weight because your body tries to hold on to anything it gets, but obviously someone can lose weight that way (such as people suffering from anorexia) because your body needs calories its not receiving, so it uses any energy source it has. The reason why that's bad is that your body will not only use stored fat for energy; it'll use muscle too. When someone is anorexic, they don't get enough nutrients so their hair and skin suffer greatly, and they do lose weight, but weight in muscle and fat. Plus they have a lot less energy because their body is trying to keep the use of energy down since it thinks food is scarce.

    If you're only eating 1,000 calories a day you will eventually lose weight, but it's the worst way to do so. You'll mess up your metabolism completely and become very ill. I would recommend eating more and keeping up the exercise and hard work :) It'll be slower, but the results will last. Also, don't go by what the scale says; go by how you feel and how your clothes fit! Good luck!

    okay at risk of sounding mean you cannot get to weigh 111kg, than say I cannot eat 1400 calories a day its too much. How in the heck did you get to be that heavy than? Sorry but its not by eating 1200 calories a day.
