How to recover from crash diet? (low metabolism)

[sfwolves78]

hey guys, ive lost 73 lbs since december (11 mos.) im now 242 (from 315). i took in a very low amount of calories during this process and am now experiencing a VERY bad plateau. ive been at 242 for about a month while still dieting. how do i fix this? i took in under a thousand calories for a few wks. i obviously learned my lesson. should i eat the 6 small meals and increase calories? or will that make me fat again? thanks

honestly...if you are still fat...keep the calories at the normal level you do, and run your ass off...seriously...run run run....push yourself

run longer then an hour if you can...cardio and diet= results
