[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Be careful to drink MORE water than before. Eating less dehydrates you. Stick to unprocessed fruits and veggies to ward of constipation and get vitamins and fluids, eat lean protein (I'm buying turkey ham with 0 fat right now, there's also tofu and chicken, etc), and nix the starch (rice, pasta, bread). Take a multivitamin, perhaps iron if you have anemic tendencies. You must be tall. My normal calorie intake is 1400 and my diet one is half that. [/quote] Nobody's caloric intake should be 700 calories. Your metabolism must be so jacked up. [/quote] Agree. Such terrible advice from the pro-ana crowd here. OP, your body is just adjusting. It'll take a week or so.[/quote] Once again, criticizing people you don't know, whose shape and metabolism you don't know either. Way to go. I'm a slim and petite Asian. I'm healthy, but thank you very much for judging! [/quote] NP here. Why in the world would a slim and petite person of any race come onto a thread about a person dieting to lose weight and gloat about how they subsist on 1400 calories and diet at 700? According to USDA guidelines, the average woman needs 1600-2000 for healthy weight management. You are so small and below the median that your caloric intake cannot possibly be close to average or close to the caloric intake of a person who is heavy and trying to lose weight. Why in the world would you come here to rub your low caloric intake because of your diminutive size into the face of someone who is heavy and dieting? How could it possibly be pertinent or helpful?[/quote] Agreed. How utterly weird and irrelevant. And well below what a normal, healthy, and fit/active adult woman should be eating. [/quote] These comments are childishly emotional. You wouldn't react this way if deep down, you weren't jealous, which is unhealthy. Everyone has to feed the body they have, so no one should be jealous of anyone else! Stop criticizing others just because they have different needs. [/quote] You're missing the glaring point. Your body has a NEED for food. 700 calories isn't enough to sustain healthy life. Look, I can eat whatever I want and never workout and be a thin but soft 100 lbs. or I can eat healthy, work out 3x a week, and be a trim and lean 100 lbs. I don't have any reason to be jealous of someone who goes through life subsisting on 700 calories a day. How sad and joyless. You must have no energy and constant anxiety over every bite you eat if your ceiling is 700 calories. You really should not be chiming in on weight loss threads because your whole attitude and advice is detrimental and unhealthy.[/quote]
