Imagine for a moment that you are stranded in a desert (not stranded in ice cream, but the Sahara... get your mind out of the gutter!). You know that you are stuck for a long time with no chance of rescue. You also know that you are 100 miles or more from civilization. Now imagine that all that you have is a back pack full of food and 2 gallons of water for supplies.
Are you going to waste any of that water? You will not waste even a drop! In fact you will likely establish some sort of rationing system for that water. Why? BECAUSE YOU DON'T WANT TO DIE!
Now imagine that you are stranded just as far from civilization, with the same pack of food and water, but you are in a rain forest where you can partially refill your water supply at anytime with rain fall. You will likely not waste water but the emergency surrounding your water no longer exists.
These are the two scenarios that dieting puts your body into. All diets restrict calories in the hopes of burning fat in place of the food that you skipped. Over dieting creates a desert like situation where the body thinks that it/you are in grave danger and it conserves its available stoDres of energy, body fat. Strategic dieting cuts enough calories so that you will still burn fat but does not put your body into Emergency Conservation of fat.
The number one rule in weight loss is that you must write down everything that you eat and drink. This is the ONLY way that you KNOW what is happening with your food. Don't estimate, don't assume, just follow the damn rule! Once you are following this rule it is easy to make adjustments up or down because you will have a formal history to learn from.
In conclusion, make sure that you are eating, make sure that you are tracking what you eat, make sure that you are patient enough to let your body do the processes over time that will give you the body that you want and make sure that you seek help when you get frustrated rather then mess yourself up by making semi-educated guesses that dig you into a whole.
