Can you live a life on a consistent 500 kcal diet? I was saying that with age (and with gender) it is much more difficult to maintain weight with just lowering down the calorie intake.
- mlrtime 8y agoOf course you can , but if you think living life = pizza, cake, fries, then you will have to make adjustments.
- arsenico 8y agoLiving life is going to work every day, working 8 hours a day, and then having something for yourself in the evening - walks in the park, or some exercise, or something else that actually requires energy.
- endless1234 8y agoI get that it's more difficult to do such changes the older you get just from a psychological standpoint, especially if your body is used to a caloric surplus (which it probably is if you're thinking about going to a 500 kcal deficit). But I'm interested in knowing if the body metabolism really changes so drastically when you get older as to make a -500 kcal diet impractical, and where the cutoff for practicality would then be.
