That is in no way healthy Meveret. I don't know if you're male or female or how old you are, but that is by far way too low.

How Many Calories Should I Eat?

This site has something on it which will tell you how many calories your body will burn a day if you do zero activity.

I'm female, age 29, about 150 lbs and I am 5'3.5". Guess what? I need almost 1500 calories per day if I wanted to maintain my weight. If I was dieting, a healthier weight loss regime would be 1200. 1000 per day is MUCH too low, especially for biking that much per day.
