Very Low-Calorie Diets: Risks and Safety for Weight Loss

Question
hi i was wondering if i workout in eat 800-900 calorie a day will i be able to lose 40-50 pound by june 30 for my party

Answer
Diets below 900 Calories a day are considered very low calorie diets and should be professionally supervised. U. S. Food and Drug Administration warns that "Very low-calorie diets are not without risk and should be pursued only under medical supervision. Unsupervised very low-calorie diets can deprive you of important nutrients and are potentially dangerous." -- The Magic Bullet for Weight Loss?

On the other hand, your weight loss target looks rather realistic and can be achieved without VERY low calorie diet. On the Banta diet, for example, which doesn't require calorie counting at all, people were losing 1 to 11 pounds a week. Take a look at http://bantadiet.com
