And believe me, even if you are eating more calories, you will still lose weight. Sheryl has lost over 30lbs. So obviously, this works. And believe me, Steve knows what he's talking about. I would take his advice seriously. It's ok if you only eat 1000 calories sometimes, but doing it consistantly will bring your weight loss to a halt b/c your body will go into starvation mode and your metabolism will slow down. There is a very good sticky you should read in the Harsh Truth section. It the first sticky: 5 Ways to Gain Fat. Excellent. I printed it out and keep it close at hand.
