Also, I was reading up on starvation mode today. I found out that as long as you have fat stores to rely on, your body will keep using those. BUT you have to eat good, protein and nutrient rich foods for this to work. Which means salads and fruit and none of the bad shit. But I've also found that it drops metabolism, which means your daily calories burned goes down. But I read that it only drops down to 900-1400 so if you are eating below that constantly, I don't see why you wouldn't still lose weight. As long as your calorie deficit is the same amount in both cases. So say you normally burn 14000 calories and it drops to 900. As long as, you eat the same amount below that as you did before, it won't change anything.
About the muscle loss, all diets cause muscle loss. Healthy diets make you lose 25% muscle and starvation makes you lose 50% muscle but you can counter act that by doing strength training.
Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
