Your metabolim will not slow down if you:
1. Eat every 3 hours.
2. Exercise regulary
3. Don't drop to 1300 too fast. Drop your calories to 1500 for a few weeks...the drop it again to 1300.

Well the calories you need depend on more than just how much you weigh..... we've established your goals, weight, age... now we would need to know more about your daily activities, and workouts and what your current diet looks like to help you out. Just cause you weigh a certain amount doesn't mean that you need a specific amount of calories.....more factors into it than that.

ok i do some wieghts about 30 mins a day chest and triceps for the first day and shoulders back and biceps for the 2nd day and the last day is legs and abs then i take a one day break im throwing in some cardio 15-20 mins a day jumproping or runnig! anything i have to switch it up cause i get bored ! the kinds of food i eat arent the best i eat alot of cheese and crackers and and its hard for me to have self control i like to drink alot of diet pepsi and i have i eat sweets every so often but i usually stay under 2000 calories a day but ive been dropping down to 1300 and its really hard and my bf says it can lower my metabolism and i dont need that! i want results and i want to know how much i should probably take my bf said i should up it to around 1600-1800 and but the last time i lost wieght i did it with only eating 1300 calories it did take a while to do and i wasnt excersizing!

bump!
