There is no such thing as starvation mode. At least not how you’re using it. And while we are at it, exercise is NOT required for weight loss (for health, yes, to lose weight, no).
Weight loss is simple. It’s just basic math. Calories in vs calories out. Period.
Now, with that said, it’s simple, but not easy to do.
Again, I said not how you’re using it. Skipping lunch will not induce “starvation mode”. Consuming 300kcal a day for weeks/months will because your body is literally trying to keep itself alive.
