Millions of people, women particularly, are living in a state of permanent calorie deprivation (i.e. hunger), which should be ‘rewarding’ this starvation with 50-100 pounds lost every year. The average woman, (needing 2,000 calories a day), on 1,000 calories a day, should lose 104 pounds each and every year (regardless of starting weight). Yet, instead, they lose little or nothing and put on weight when they can’t stand the starvation any longer and eat close to a normal day’s requirement of 2,000 calories. We cannot allow this to continue.
