* Not at all. It's not enough and to be healthy it's recommended for regular people to intake at least 1000. * For the average female person 1200 calories per day is the dietary ruling and men are more depending on their body structure.

∙ 14y agoIt can be, yes. 1,200 calories is a good diet for someone who is on the smaller (height) side, and who is not too active. Someone who does light activity and exercise would benefit from a diet of 1,200 calories a day.

∙ 14y ago600 calories is a bit low and not enough to nourish the entire body. The ideal weight loss diet consists of either 1,000 cal or 2,000 cal diet, this way your body gets what it needs, all throughout the chord of your body.

∙ 14y ago800 cals/day is bad, that's not a diet - that's starvation. Don't go there, it's not healthy and it's not likely to lead to a sustainable weight loss.
Getting overweight is a life style issue, and to lose the weight you need to change the life style. Doing a hardcore starvation diet like that will not let you establish those new healthy habits that'll keep the weight from returning, and you're very likely to pile the weight back on again as soon as you go off the diet - which you'll have to do, as 800 cals/day isn't sustainable.

∙ 13y agoIt can be. It depends on the individual, though. For some it might be considered too low of a calorie intake. Try talking with a doctor or calculating your calorie needs in an online calorie calculator for a more accurate answer.

∙ 12y agoNo, just balance out the rest of your meals for the day. They say you should try and have about 500 calories per meal (three meals a day) so it's not TOO far off.

Would 800 caories a day be enough?
No, 800 calories is not enough for anybody. Most people, at the very least, need 1,200 calories just to survive. If you keep eating 800 calories for a long period of time, it will cause a lot of health problems you'll probably end up regretting later on.

Eight hundred calories per day will be fine for a very young child between approximately 5 to 12 months. However, 800 calories per day would be far too few for an adult or teenager.

It all depends on your calories intake and physical activity. If you consume more calories than what your body needs despite loosing 800 calories a day, you wouldn't loose any weight.

How much weight would a 6 foot 275 pound male lose in a week with consuming 800?
Eating 800 calories a day is very dangerous. A man of that height and weight should be consuming about 2,000 to 2,200 calories a day. If they wished to lose weight, the best way would be to reduce the calories to around 1,600 to 1,800 calories a day and begin to exercise. Such a dramatic cut in calories (to 800, for example), would reall begin to wreak havoc on the metabolism and not lead to healthy, long-term weight loss.

Is it safe to eat only 600 calories a day?
No, not at all. Most human bodies need about 800 to 1,000 calories a day just to survive, at the minimum. (Breathing, heart beating, simple movements.) When people do active things, ranging from walking to playing in sports, the body requires more calories to have enough energy to do so. Eating too few calories deprives the body of nutrients and can harm many organ and systems in the body.
