    Low calorie diets are generally frowned upon here. You don't need to go as low as 800-1000 calories per day. Just stick to the MFP number and you'll be fine.

    I had two close family members do it. Restricting calories to that level does bring rapid weight loss but in the worst possible way.

    They were severely vitamin deficient, super low iron, lost significant muscle mass, literally hit a point where they hardly had the energy to do basic day to day things.

    After they went off it they gained every pound back and more. Not to mention that it is basically a pyramid scam.

    I am not saying all of this to rain on your parade and be mean but in my opinion based on the experience that two close family members went through I think that plan is dangerous.
