Yeah... Not vital tissues, at least, not for a long time. Your body does a sort of internal triage when it goes into starvation. It'll go after the absolute least important tissues first. Hair, skin, nails, breasts. Then it'll start going after non-essential muscle tissue. And finally it'll start attacking essential muscle tissue. If you let it go far enough, your body will literally eat itself.
If instead you enter a controlled catabolism wherein you are getting plenty of protein and a good balance of vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants, which is what I've been doing. Simply taking in far fewer calories than you actually need but still getting complete nutrition just in a much much more condensed form...
Your body then doesn't actually enter starvation at all and it goes purely after the tissues that'll supply the most energy: fat.
So my small breasts aren't going to develop any fat tissue while I'm on this controlled catabolism, but the other breast tissue will be allowed to develop.
Likewise my hair, skin, nails, etc are all going to remain healthy and whole. Catabolizing these tissues doesn't provide the body with very many calories if any, since the catabolizing of them itself takes calories.
This controlled catabolism will, however, slowly eat away at all my fat stores, leaving me with absolutely no fat on my body. I don't actually want to go THAT far, but I estimate all the stores that greatly affect my overall shape should be gone by 125 pounds.
Once I hit that point, it'll just be a matter of gaining the weight back while taking the right combination of hormonal supplementation to put it all in a feminine distribution with no excess.
