I currently eat 1,000 calories and I weigh 60kg. So I am unsure of how to lose more

1000 calories is really low and not sustainable - what did you use to calculate this?
If you're actually eating just 1000 calories, you will lose weight, unless you have something metabolically wrong. Also, why don't you tone your body? What does 'looking slimmer' mean?

No its not meant to be advice it was a response question to this. I should've quoted to not make any misunderstanding. I wouldn't recommend anyone to take in only 500cal .

Fair enough. But even so, the response is a bit terrible in general. You shouldn't have even said this, realistically.

Why ? I simply wanted to know what would happen if you only take in 500 calories a day?

No it is not. Excess kcalories are the only cause of weight gain.

No human should ever take that little (unless advised by a doctor). You need food. 500 calories is nothing.
Are you on any medication or suffering from any health issues?
What type of diet and favourite foods do you eat?
How much exercise do you do?
Maybe you’re over consuming calories without realizing it?

Without knowing you or your current lifestyle, I would advise to increase your physical activity level.

Most times (The clients that I've dealt with) just need to get moving more often and increase their metabolism
