Is 750 calories a day ok?

Question

I’ve been trying to loose weight and keep it off. I’m a pretty small woman, 5’2”. I do daily low intensity workouts and chase after my 2 year old all day lol. I tried upping it a little and immediately gained 5lbs. I was 124, now I’m 129 and it’s so annoying.

Answer

No...and besides being dangerous health wise may actually cause you to hold onto or gain weight. Your body is gonna freak out and go into starvation mode and just hold on to every single calorie/ounce of fat it can to try and protect itself. But it's super unsafe and not sustainable or beneficial at all. At your height that is still a healthy weight. If you wanna lose some weight focus on healthy eating and exercise. But remember gaining muscle could mean some weight gain. Focus on how you feel/clothes fit and being healthy not the number on a scale.

Answer

750 calories a day is not nearly enough.

Answer

NO! It's not okay at all. I'm 5' 2" as well and currently on 2,000-2,300 calories a day for breastfeeding. When I'm not breast feeding I average around 1,500-1,800 calories a day, but I don't keep track because calories aren't the most important thing. I know I have 3,000 days and that's fine. What's more important is a healthy diet, lots of water, and good exorcise. What you're doing is unhealthy, unsustainable, and dangerous.

Answer

It’s not enough, if you’re eating that little it’s going to lower your metabolism and the second you start eating more you’re going to gain weight. It’s also just not a sustainable amount to eat and you’re not going to keep it off by eating that much. Based on your TDEE you can eat 1300 -1400 calories a day to lose weight and it actually be sustainable

Answer

No. That’s starving yourself and you need at least 1800+ calories per day.

Answer

You need to eat right. Watch your saturated fats and eat whole food. Ive lost 30 pounds since Dec. Your body still need nutrition that’s not enough calories.

Answer

That 5 pounds was probably water weight. 750 is very low. Your body needs adequate nutrients to maintain muscle mass when you are trying to lose weight. When you're losing weight, you lose muscle and fat, and if you don't have the right nutrients, you can lose more muscle than you intend. The goal is to keep muscle and loose fat. Eating right will help you achieve that balance. I would either consult a nutritionist, or use an app like MyFitnessPal to help you figure out what the right amount of calories for you will be. ￼￼

Answer

Absolutely not.

Answer

No definitely not, especially if you workout.

Answer

If you don’t enough during the day, it can actually stall you from losing weight. A better option would be to eat cleaner and eat until you are full. The first sign of being full is a big sigh while eating. I also did intermittent fasting. My eating window was 12pm-8pm. I am a late night snacker, so this was a great option for me. I did light walking for 20 mins a day and light exercises. I lost over 30 lbs in one month doing this. I didn’t drink alcohol at all and only drank water. I hope this helps.
