Well, during the second world war, the nazi's ran consentration camps and did some really morbid research there.
They found that when a persons caloric intake dipped below about 1000 calories a day, they lost the capacity for emotion, became lethargic and generally stopped having a personality.
So, I would say you have a bad idea.
Please Don't Do it!

Yep! But u'll also burn ur energy & ur nose when you fall face first onto the treadmill thru lack of energy!
You need (females) 1800 - 2000 cals per day just to maintain your weight. So eat sensibly & burn more & you will lose weight!

dont do it your metabolism will slow right down and when you eat normally again you will gain the weight back really fast and it will be even harder to lose. eat 1200-1600 cals per day to lose weight properly and it will stay off the more you exercise the better good luck

It woould work only for a little bit because your energy level wont be as high so it would be hard and strenious to workout with only 500 calories in your body. try it out for a lil see how it goes. unless you eat breakfast and workout in the morning then it probably would be easier. good luck ;)

Yes but not very healthy weight loss. You need 1250 calories a day to keep you health. What your doing is fooling your body and in fact in the end it could turn back on you and gain more weight. Its easy to lose 15 lbs in a week because your loosing water. Then 2 lbs a week after that. Do it right maintain your 1250 and then lose by exercise. But you have to keeps it up, its a life time thing.

If you ate 500 cals a day and burned 1000 off at the gym you would lose weight.
The only problem being your brain would probably be severaly damaged, and you would probably burn off a ton of muscle too.
The best way to lose weight is to still eat a good amount of food so that your muscles and rest of your body get what they need, then burn that 1000 cals, which will more likely come from fat.

You would lose exactly one pound a week. But really, it isn't realistic to say that you will burn off 1000 calories a day at the gym, and 500 calories a day is not enough food.

Yes you will, extremely quickly as you will probably die to be harsh. You wont have the energy to exercise if you live on 500 calories a day.

500 caleries a day would most definitely not be good for you. But, if you ate alot of fruits and vegetables, and stuck it up to 1200 caleries a day, and still go to the gym, then you would definitely loose weight. Oh! and drink lotz of water. and sont just eat fruits and veggies. Eat proteins Calcium and fibers too, like meat and nuts. but dont eat too many of them. but yeah.

Remember that most likely, your body burns off nearly 2500 calories a day (depending on sex, body size) by just keeping you alive and doing normal daily activities. I would recommend you take in close to 1500-2000 calories a day and burn off that 1000 at the gym.
Always make sure to get a full nights sleep too and that will make you feel more refreshed in the morning. Start the morning off with breakfast too.. a banana or something.. to at least get your metabolism working.

You will lose weight fast, but you will end up messing your body up like I've done, Try eating 1000 calories aday and exercise 3- 5 times aday, just have loads of fresh foods and not processed rubbish, you will still lose weight but you will do it healthy and wont mess your body up at the same time

You have got the concept of losing weight totally wrong. Let me explain where you have gone wrong. There is a baseline amount of calories needed to maintain the normal body functions and is around 1200- 1500 calories a day minimum being 1200 whether your overweight or not. The reason why some people are NOT overweight and in good shape is that their calorie intake (food that you consume) is balanced by the calories burnt (activities), basically what it means is that the
total calorie intake per day = total calories burnt per day and NOT because they take in less than 1200 calories a day.If calorie intake is more than the number of calories burnt then the extra calories left cause you to put on the extra pounds.
For more information on healthy foods that wouldnt make you exceed your normal daily calorie intake check http://www.ultrasimplefatloss.com

No, because not only will you not have the energy to burn your body will go in to starvation mode and you will lose weight very slowly. You will also develop excess body hair so you can either lose weight normally or have it still come off slowly and be hairy too!

You will probably be really hungry eating only that many calories..You should shoot for a 1000 a day and workout for 30-45 mins intense cardio.
Eat high protein foods(small amounts throughout the day) b/c it will keep you full for longer. Try protein shakes

You should really be having 2000 calories a day. If you wanna lose weight then dont reduce the amount you eat. Instead increase the amount of exercise.

i think if you ate 500 and burned off 1000 you would collapse and end up in hospital. better to eat about 1500 of a healthy balanced diet and then do your exercises

yes, but the minute you increase your calorie intake, it will be back and inviting some friends along! Don't go below 1200 calories, your BMR usually is around that anyway (meaning you burn it without doing anything but sleeping and breathing)
