    Just be careful starting out at 1200 calories! Remember, you want this to be sustainable!

    50 lb is a marathon, not a sprint... if you go too hard, too fast (and eating too little) - you might burn out before reaching the finish line.

    Like it has been said go slow want to lose fat? Eat low carb. Consider the Paleo diet. You may lose more early on just don't get discouraged if it levels out. Good luck!
