I just started calorie counting and the amount of calories I need to maintain my weight is 2000, and I've started eating 1000 calories a day to lose weight. Problem is though, I don't even feel much different. I don't even feel like I'm really eating less, and yet I ballooned up to be a lard ass. Granted I did have a habit of binge eating and could eat 3000 calories a day doing that, but is eating 1000 calories a day really going to help me lose weight? I feel like I should be eating less because I don't even feel hungry doing this. Doesn't feel like a diet.

If you don't feel hungry you're eating too much.
Try 600 or so.
If you can go down to 400 calories a day without feeling hungry you might have Chronic liver disease or HIV.

you eating alot of protien? hunger is the body's response to needing more protein. fat and carbs are for energy and your body can get that from fat stores. starting my diet at my heaviest(130kg) i was cutting down to 1300 cals a day on lol keto but i had basically no apatite

Alright I'll try 600. I think that's when it feels right.

I'm not eating an insane amount of protein. I'm vegan and will typically eat like a basic protein and then the rest is fruit and veggies. I do always get more than I need though.
Today I ate 1400 calories though (I went on a pretty decent bike ride and usually I'm sedentary so I figured I could get away with it especially since yesterday I ate 666 calories) and I feel stuffed to the brim and full of regrets because I totally didn't need to eat that much.
