You'll lose roughly 1/2 pound per day. Thats a big calorie deficit and dangerous. I wouldn't do it. Besides you look very cute and petite in your avatar picture.

One pound is 3500 calories. Your deficit will be 1800 calories per day so thats 1 pound every two days.

Your normal calorie intake is 1200 per day and you're cutting that back to 600 so you have a minus 600 there. Plus another minus 1200 for the exercise. So that makes 1800.

BTW, running burns about 100 calories per mile for an average weight person. So your talking about the equivalent of a twelve mile run daily with only 600 calories intake. Thats not a good thing to try IMO.

plus exercise, many. with best regard.

You need a minimum of 1200 calories as a girl. If you eat less, your body will go into starvation mode and store the next thing you eat as fat in order to preserve itself. Diet smart.
Does your doctor know that you're planning to consume only 600 calories a day? I think it's time for a new doctor.

good luck burning 1200 calories a day never mind eating only 600. so you would be neg. 600 a day.

well you'll lose a lot of weight. then you would drop dead
