Is there a risk of death with very low calorie?

OK, I just read a story about this obese woman who died not long after starting a 500 kcal/day diet. They can't say for sure it was the diet that killed her, but still, this is worrisome! She was still obese when she died!

Is it possible to die on a very low calorie diet even if you are still fat?

I'm eating more than 500 kcal/day though so does that mean I'm not at risk? Over 5 weeks my average is about 1030 kcal/day, but my average for this past week is about 800 kcal.

My body won't eat away at my heart as long as I eat enough protein right??

What are some things I should make sure of in my new lifestyle? I don't want to die, I just want to be as thin as possible while still being healthy.

I already take supplements.

I'll go get a physical in Nov. and hopefully that will tell me I am still healthy.

I'm probably being a hypochondriac about this again.
