[quote=Anonymous]I am a very fine-boned, petite, East Asian woman who feels most healthy at a BMI of 18. If I want to lose weight to get there, I need to go below 900 calories a day and exercise. That's just how it is. The typical American advice does not apply to certain smaller frames, OP. In East Asia, we know this, and are not excoriated when we try to care for our health. Here, people cannot believe it's not unhealthy, because they're used to dealing with larger and heavier frames, who at a baseline level, need more calories to function. You do what you need to do, and make sure to get all your nutrients, vitamins and minerals in your diet. [/quote]
