as i'm tracking my food i've noticed I'm under my calorie goal buy a few hundred. Is that a sign of always feeling hungry? also does that also contribute in not losing weight? because I've heard it does.
From what I've read, eating less than 1200 calories a day puts you in starvation mode. But I'm not sure if that's for everyone or just "average" weight. It's probably best to eat more than 1300 or 1400 just to be safe. - TamiPoppins39.7 #4003 7-19-11 10:45AMLike Reply
