While I salute your effort to lose some weight, I have to speak out against "brisk walking". Instead, play some basketball, go for a hike, or do something else... please... no more brisk walkers! |

no
but it safely works, my chlesterol was so high, I had to quickly lose weight or I'd have suffered a stroke at some point in my late 20's. 1200 is the bare minimum, I did 6 months of it to lose weight then I added more calories. Most really, really fat people that end up in hospitals lose all the weight because they are put on a 1200 calorie a day diet. I was probably at 1300 not 1200 but it helped quickly lose weight, I'm at 1800 calories a day now and probably go to 2,000 when I add another mile or two to my running but my body hurts after I work because I work part time for now in a warehouse lifting couches and mattresses for delivery. It's safe, if you really want to lose weight, visit your doctor or see a nutrionist, it's the safest way. |

But if you are fat, your first issue is your weight because the heavier you are, the more risk you are at for heart disease, stroke and other complications. I never lost any muscle mass when I went on that type of diet for a while, tho I did lift weight about once or twice a week. |

If you're heavy, of course you're not going to notice the loss of muscle mass, but it is happening, regardless.
Not many people can sustain such a shock to the system, and a dramatic decrease of food intake. It's easier to cut out certain problem areas as you go, a little bit at a time. This way you're less prone to rebound and stay true to your diet. |
