You stupid bastard. There was a study of a morbidly obese Scottish man who literally ate nothing for a year, only drinking water and taking a few vitamin supplements under medical supervision. He went down to a normal weight and kept if off. The three meals a day Jew and "starvation mode" myth are literally food industry inventions. You can get by with one or two meals a day just fine.

I lost a lot of weight really fast, so I stayed at less than 1000 for about 3 months. I lost weight but I look bad. I lost muscle, I lost hair, I visibly look older.

You should eat more
Starving yourself wont make you healthier. It will only make you weaker and potentially sick.
Compensating your lack of food with vitamins wont keep you going for very long.

Food is full of the vitamins that you need. Eat varied meal every days and you wont over eat because they will fill you up while giving you all the nutrient you need.

I think that instead of starving and getting weaker you should eat balanced meal and move more to get stronger.

The hunger was mental conditioning and your stomach adjusting. At 170kg and a sedentary lifestyle you have more than enough energy to sustain yourself for a short time, and the vitamins will keep you alive while you do. What you should worry about though is your muscles being slowly consumed along with fat, you could become very weak from your skeletal muscles shrinking, and be at higher risk of a heart attack because your heart is a muscle and will be under a lot of stress. When (if) you start excercising you need to start very slowly otherwise you'll kill yourself. This is why doctors recommend you dont starve yourself to lose weight.

Also mentally you arent preparing yourself to eat a balanced diet. Once you stop this you may simply rediscover the reason why you over ate and yo-yo like so many do. You really need to researching what it is that makes a healthy diet. The entire internet is at your disposal

Doing intermitted fasting for 4 weeks now. Went from 99 to 94 kg at 189cm height. Went down to 1300kcal for now. Work out 5-6 Times a week (Cardio, weightlifting). Goal is 85-88kg.
Coming to ck in the middle of the night was a mf mistake.

No, you would just lose weight until you reach your new maintenance weight. Water has no calories

I live off an average 1600 calories per day and feel fine. 5'9 145-150 pounds. It always fluctuates.

If I had the option to consume 2500 calories per day I would. Except food costs money.

I didn't even have soda, but I had a shit ton of sugar from all my fruit drinks. I switched to just eating fruits and my doctor thought I was doing something stupid by how fast I lost weight.

I have never read something so uneducated in my entire life. Jesus fucking Christ. I.. I hate you. I hate every person like you. You are why civilizations fall. You are why the challenger exploded. Please end it before another tragedy occurs because of cunts like you.
