    Will my body go into starvation mode if I only eat 850 calories per day?

    Run_fit the average man burns around 1800 calories a day so yes your body will. That amount of calories you won't meet your nutritional needs so I would recommend 850 a day.

    It took you almost a month to answer? That's not super helpful. Why not jump in and answer some of the hundreds of questions posted here daily like the rest of us try to? They never stop coming!

    Lol. Sorry Dianne I don't get notifications on my phone.

    I didn't know knowledge could be measured in units of time.

    It can if you are acquiring knowledge on your journey to a healthier you Paul!

    If I were you I'd cut down on carbs and sugar. I make sure most of my carbs from from veggies. Meal prep for the week veggies and lean meats.

    Part of the troll problem is when you and others offer advice like this in which newer and possibly misinformed people will take as the truth.

    How can one suggest to cut down on carbs and sugar specifically to one person when you have no idea what they currently consume within their caloric, macro, or micro goals?

    For somebody to lose weight, they do not have to eat a certain foods, only eat in a deficit.

    One can lose weight on ice cream and donuts if they are in eating in a deficit.

    One can gain weight on low sugar, low carbs, lean meats and vegetables if they eat in a surplus.

    With all do respect, it would be a better idea for you not to give advice in this way. I'm not trying bash you, just expose that this will not be helpful for people who are looking for solid advice.



    I don't think anyone should take advice as truth...its advice, its an opinion, we should all do research on things we read, see and hear. I don't mind the discussion I just think the negative comments are funny. I never said I was an expert on anything so you can take the advice or leave it...but thanks for the comment bro!

    Can you describe the metabolites of sucrose, and why they would be less preferential to monosaccharides or polysaccharides when fiber and micronutrient intake is normalized? Serious question here.

    It's useful to get to know a site a bit before starting a post, don't you think? As it is, taking months to reply until someone stirs up some drama in here makes it look like you were less interested in helping and more interested in the attention.

    Count them. But you don't get the benefits of fibre.
