Title: One Of Those Calorie Questions!!but A Good Question!!!!so..uh..help

ok, I read in Shape Magazine that if you are trying to lose wieght, and you are exercising regularly, you can lose wieght even better by alternating your calorie intake...for example:
for two weeks straight you consume anywhere from 1800-2000 calories per day, then the 3rd and 4rth week you go back down to 1300-1500 calories perday, and suposedly, this calorie alternating will help you lose wieght better...so is there any truth to that?!!
ok thanks!

    i can see how it works. your body gets used to burning an amount and if you're giving you body what it needs it will burn them more easily(1800). so if you cut your intake one week yes you'll lose weight but if you keep your intake low for too long your body will go into starvation mode so it will hold on to every cal you take in. so when you start eating more again it will start to stick easier and the weight comes back.
    it's to hard sometimes to keep your intake so low for along time plus you'll start to feel really hungery unless you eat smaller meals throughout the day. i've learned all this from self experience and some reading and my advise is if you want to cut your cals low do it only a few days a week.
