Oh one thing, Steven's post is very correct. For example, Aaron would never be expected to stay on a calorie deficit like that forever (500 calories a day is very low indeed!). Like Steve said, once the goal is accomplished, you may then increase your caloric intake again- BUT it must now be BALANCED from then on so the calories in=calories out. That is how you "keep" your results. Aaron could easily have a 2500-3000 calorie diet if he maintains the exercise and he will remain at his weight. Maybe he needs a little less calories- he'd have to monitor his weight over time to see what his metabolism allows.
Good luck this year Aaron.
