You are either unhealthily starving yourself or completely incorrect about your daily calorie intake

Dude that is not a safe or maintainable intake pls just calculate your maintenance calories on a website and stick to a more moderate deficit

Below 1200 cal you're not on a cut, you're on a die. Your organs need 1200 minimum to function, anything less is starvation mode and any weight you loose is muscle. This isn't fitness it's just self-hate

bigger deficits and greater energy expenditure will not always help you cut faster. when you eat that little and burn that many calories, your body will metabolically adapt and burn less calories at rest. it’ll reduce normal function it does every day to try to conserve calories to keep you alive. what you’re doing is being stupid and your body is trying to keep you from killing yourself! you can’t speed run a deficit like that, shit takes time. be smart

That’s not how fat loss works you’re just going to be depleted and have 0 energy

You’re going to lose your organs if you don’t eat more. You should be eating at least 2200 calories based on your height and weight and presumed activity level. Anything else is doing nothing but harm
