No matter who you are, at the BARE MINIMUM you should be eating between 1100-1300 calories a day. If you have less muscle mass, you naturally will burn less calories throughout the day, meaning you’ll pack on the pounds faster.
It’s bad because muscles are very calorically-expensive to maintain, which means that simply having muscles inside you is going to burn calories (about 50 calories a day per pound of muscle in fact). So when you come off your diet, you’ve lost muscle mass, which is bad. Sure, your body will burn fat reserves to attempt to avoid starving, but it will also burn MUSCLE.
Why? Because crash diets usually “work” by severely limiting your calorie intake. Found this under my yogurt today and I wanted to make a quick note on this:Ĭrash diets not only don’t work long-term, but you’re also at risk to GAIN all the weight you lost back AND THEN SOME after you come off your diet.
