Not eating enough calories will also force the body to cannibalize muscle and hold on to fat. The body considers muscle to be expendable material during periods of starvation, and it considers fat to be necessary to insulate your organs for survival.
A deficit of daily calories will lead to a horrible cycle of up and down or yo-yo dieting. You'll starve yourself and end up losing muscle, and when you begin to eat the right amount of calories, your body will pack on the pounds in anticipation of another "famine."
