I’m short with a small frame, and I only burn about 1400 calories on a non-cardio day. Maybe an average of 1800 on a cardio day. I have about ten pounds to lose, but eating the recommended 1200 cals/day is soooo slow! Of course more cardio would speed things up, but I’ve just moved to the other side of the planet, and I haven’t settled into this time zone, much less a regular workout routine. How detrimental is it for someone my size to eat less than 1000 cals per day? Not trying to harm myself, just trying to get the last little bit off in a not-so frustrating and tedious amount of time. Sometimes the scale will end up going up for several days in a row or even a week just because of water retention, etc, even though I’m eating at a deficit, and it’s very discouraging.
If anyone has advice even just about keeping the bloat off so I can see steadier progress and more tangible results, I’d be very grateful.
