Not eating enough to cover calories burned
Where does my body get energy when I don't eat enough calories to match how many I'm burning? I've only eaten like 600 calories today, and I've burned just over 1000. I'm trying to gain weight. I hope this isn't reversing all my working out.

I have thyroid issues so I can't eat too much soy, and I do cottage cheese, beans, quinoa, lentils etc but it is time consuming and sometimes I just don't think I get as full…
