Will this slow the rate at which I lose weight? I'm not starving and I don't feel horrible but I'm just always about 100 calories below.

    It may not slow the speed of weightloss, but it will slow your metabolism, cause your body to store the fat and live off of the muscle, and then increase your weight once you start eating normally again because your metabolism will be too confused to behave normally. You are really hurting your progress in the long run. 100 calories is easy - just carry one of those 100 calore packets of something you like.
