A member asked:

Will i lose weight by consuming 700 calories per day and doing cardio for an hour a day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not healthy!: Eating too few calories may cause your body to actually lose muscle. Also, doing that much cardio on a very low calorie diet can be dangerous. Please make sure you are eating enough calories to properly fuel your body in a healthy manner.
