Way too little cals. Ur body probably is at a super low maintenance and in survival mode now. Do a refeed and start eating Whole foods, lifting, and getting lots of steps.

"Survival mode" is not a real thing. If she's not losing weight she's eating enough calories to sustain her normal level of activity. Most likely case scenario is an underestimation of calories, but either way, eating more calories is rarely a better path towards losing weight

If she’s been eating that way for a long enough time then her body will hold on to all the fat it can. So yes that’s survival mode. But yes if she just started eating that much then she should keep at it. But still, 1000 calories is very very low and really not sustainable

Doing any back workouts right now will just really make your back bigger, stay in a caloric deficit, don’t eat two hours before bed or two hours after you wake up. Try to lift while fasted and take in caffeine, lots of water, clean carbs, protein, and ultimately write your goals down as you need to have clear and realistic standards set before you chase your goal.
