class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It drives you nuts; you have been working extra hard to lose weight but no results. You might have subscribed to fad diets or even tried slimming pills. Most of those are a hoax anyway. The truth is, a calorific restriction is needed for any sustained weight loss. That, of course, needs to be accompanied by physical activity.<\/p>\n<p>The 1000 calorie diet is the most implemented dietary restriction plan where you reduce your daily calorie intake by up to 40 % below your basal energy requirements. As that happens, you&#8217;re supposed to increase their consumption of macronutrients and micronutrients to avoid deficiencies.<\/p>\n<p>The laws of science state that &#8220;energy can neither be created nor destroyed.&#8221; That means that the energy entering your body can either be used as fuel or stored. If your energy intake is higher than energy expenditure, more of it is stored, leading to weight gain.<\/p>\n<p>The healthy meal plan can achieve a weight loss of 1\u20132 pounds per week if combined with physical activity. It could help both men and women lose weight safely. However, this diet plan is associated with hunger. It is prudent not to use it routinely and to stay hydrated through the program.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Calorie_Restriction_Works\"><\/span>How Calorie Restriction Works<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It reduces insulin resistance, glucose intolerance, and obesity-induced hyperglycemia<\/li>\n<li>It reduces increases insulin sensitivity<\/li>\n<li>thereby speeding up metabolism<\/li>\n<li>It reduces the size of adipose tissues<\/li>\n<li>It has a positive effect on gut microbes, which in turn improves metabolic health<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Implement_the_1000_Calorie_Diet_Plan\"><\/span>How To Implement the 1000 Calorie Diet Plan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Your diet plan should give you all the nutrients you need daily while staying below the 1000 calorie mark.

Healthy oils such as olive oil can be used in moderation\u2014olive oil is heart-healthy.<\/p>\n<p>The 1000 calorie meal plan also focuses on small servings and frequent meals, unlike intermittent fasting. Apart from a restriction of fats and high-calorie carbs, alcohol is also prohibited.
