Amount possible to lose each week?
If I have a BMR of 1300 and eat less than 500 calories a day [usually
more around 300] how much weight can I lose and how quickly can I lose it?

You will lose approximately all of your body weight in a matter of just a couple months. That's pretty funny. It seems like that is exactly what some people want to do (lose all of their bodyweight). --

"VLCDs and low-calorie diets with an average intake between 400 and 800 kcal do not differ in body weight loss." and "Recently, many centers modified their VLCD formulas to contain more calories. Studies have shown that weight loss is about as good on 800 as on 400 to 500 calories a day, and there are probably fewer risks." As there are no proven health or weight loss benefits to reducing your caloric intake below 800 calories/day, you're just increasing your risk of painful medical complications and possibly death. If you still want to go ahead with your diet, this may help: http://tinyurl.com/ye6zy8 335/328/215

You will lose a lot and gain back all plus 10% And most of the weight loss will be muscle - most weight gained back will be fat most likely leaving the OP with a higher body fat percentage.

BMR means Base or Basal Metabolic Rate and is the number of calories your body needs to just live and breath. http://www.hussmanfitness.org/html/TLRagingMetab.html Eating less than that is not the way to go as your body will not favor your fatloss for very long as it will soon perceive you are starving it and will do everything it can to preserve itself. Its like the hampster syndrome, more and more running on a wheel while eating less your body soon adapts to what you give it and stores bodyfat while eating away any muscles you have. http://skwigg.tripod.com/id32.html Somemore reading: http://www.hussmanfitness.org/html/TFCalories.html -- try his BMR calculator Gosh I thought people were smarter than this - never ceases to amaze me how little people know about dieting/calories/exercise and the human body. joanne
