If you do not consume enough calories, your body can go into what is called starvation mode. There are some bad side effects of starvation mode, including kidney problems and creating body fat reserves. At minimum, a person should consume 1,200 calories a day for their body to properly function. It can go up from there depending on the person's activity levels and metabolism.

Will one bad day of eating cause you to gain weight?

It depends on what you eat, how much you eat and how much you exercise on the "bad day." Every pound of body fat is equal to 3,500 calories. If you eat that much on your bad day and do not exercise, you can gain one pound of body fat. If you eat an extra 500 calories and run for an hour give or take some minutes, it may not have an effect at all.
