    Your metabolism has slowed down due to a fasting diet.

    Take a break from your fasting diet, eat your maintenance calories for two weeks, each meal should have fats, proteins and carbs as your hormones are all ****ed up. Then after two weeks start again, but this time only subtract 500 calories from your daily maintenance calories.

    makes sense

    Just start eating more. I remember eating a really low calorie diet for a long time as well (I did this based on terrible misinformation and a general misunderstanding of how food and exercise works, not because of my job) and when I began to eat and actually feel full I was also nervous at first. This is natural. Keep your head up and realize that with the amount of exercise you are doing you will most certainly not see any ill effects of eating more food, you will actually start seeing better results! It is hard at first and seems counter intuitive but I promise it will work for you. Eat. Work hard. Enjoy life. Be patient. Get fit =)

    I'm doing the 30 day shred. I completed it last week and I have just started it again, but with heavier weights. That and some walking is about it at the moment.

    if you,re only eating 500 calories a day, you are not gaining muscle, You would be shedding it trying to survive,

    Go see a Dr. therapist, priest anyone for help. You do not have a healthy relationship with food. Please get help.

    all of this!

    well, the good news is :

    yesterday I managed to eat 1167

    today 1245

    I was advised to eat 2000 cals.

    I'm expected to gain weight trying to get myself out of starvation mode.

    then I'll start losing weight again

    It's disappointing because I thought I'll lose those last 7 kgs very fast

    wish me luck guys
