Your body gets used to the amount of calories you eat. So if you don’t eat to that amount, it freaks out and thinks you’re dying (/dramatic effect). After gradually reducing your daily caloric intake and hitting your new maintenance target, over time your body will get used to the new norm.

Yes, that is often the case, but reducing it is the hard part. You need to keep it at a lower level for a while before your body adjusts.

Note that for some people it never adapts completely. Those people will always feel hungry or crave a snack and are never satisfied with the level of calories they actually need.
