I don't know that you'd be getting enough nutrients to support your exercise if you keep up the 1200 or so and the amount of exercise you do at your current weight? It's hard to get enough nutrients at 1200, I think, although it can be planned for. But you'd be healthier overall if you added some nice nutritious calories to your diet and lose slower now, imho. Your period stopping, in your case, might be a clue that you are doing too much to your body without enough fuel (and vitamins, etc).

But I think the exercise is great! It's not like you are overtraining. Just eat more

I'm your height, 23, and I was still losing eating 1760 calories, plus 65% of the calories Fitbit added.

I stopped my period for about 10 months and my doctor wasn't concerned. She said that longtime birth control usage can sometimes cause it. I'm more overweight than I'd like to be, but certainly not starving or dangerously underweight.

You think you are not starving your self...but your body tells otherwise...it has not enough nutrition's to keep up your periods...( when you are sure of no other medical issues like you said)

So even if you think its all oke in your mind ...your body says its not oke with me.

I'd say this is common - not sure about 'normal' though. Anything to do with periods and skipping them I'd take straight to a doctor and let him/her decide if there is anything untoward going on.

I've noticed in the last month, I've had TWO periods and I am seeing lots of black 'floaters' and 'cobwebs' in my vision. The floaters and cobwebs could be a contact lens issue but I'm still a little worried. I'm not pregnant and I'm not on a restrictive plan (I'm eating quite near to maintenance - I only have 7 lbs to go) so if I was to guess, I'd say it's related to my 30 lb weight loss. Having said that, it could be anything and I SHOULD really be making a doctors appointment some day soon. Always best to get things checked out!
