How long does it take to lose weight?
Most people begin losing weight immediately. The key to our success is that this is not a calorie-restrictive dieting plan. What you start out eating in the beginning will most likely be how you eat from now on. You won’t go hungry, but neither will you engorge or overeat. So unlike dieting plans that will have you dropping a lot of weight immediately (only to gain it back later), your success will be measured by losing bit by bit, without any more effort than the knowledge you are in control of how you eat.
500 cal/day isnt enough per day to keep basic functions going in my opinion. I lost 70 lbs in about 6 months eating b/w 1000 – 1200 calories a day, leaving myself one day a week to cheat and doing basic calisthenic excercises about 45 min a day 3-5x a week. You need to eat fewer calories a day than you burn to lose weight effeciently, but enough to make sure you have energy to function ^_^ If you are looking for a boost to lose weight, try the chocolate I linked.
