Please stay in touch: w/your doc. That's a low amount of calories. Some folks find a ketogenic diet helpful. It's fat burning but ask your doc first. Peace and good health. Good fat is good for us. Beware of low fat misinformation. Green tea and EGCG capsules from green tea can boost metabolism but lifestyle, exercise, is also important.

You need healthy die: Start with eating healthy. You can count your calories try to eat a 1800 cal diet per day and then you must exercise 1 hour every day. Cardiac exercise is best and burns the most calories but depending on your age do what you can tolerate. May take time to build up your strength

No need for speed: Weight loss is a challenging process but a rewarding and important one when you are overweight.
Speed rarely wins this race. A slow more deliberate process leads to longer sustained weight loss.
It starts with mentally getting past this necessity for speed. Otherwise, you will be doomed to fail.
Set yourself up for success not failure!
good luck!
