Strange tingling in stomach?

thatonegirlnamedmya

The last two days my sister and I have been on a low cal high protein diet in order to lose some extra fat. Ive been excercising like normal (hiit with a bit of weight training), and for some reason we have both been having tingling and numbness in our stomachs.

Has anyone else experienced this or know possible causes? Thanks

i won't lie, this post concerns me, op.

low cal? HOW low cal? your diary isn't open. if you're creating a huge deficit and eating under 1,200-1,000 kcals per day, unless you were restricted to that amount of kcals by a doctor, you're hungry. you NEED to eat or you'll stall and you won't lose weight as your body attempts to preserve itself. i mean, obviously if you starve yourself you'll eventually unstall and slowly deteriorate, but i assume you don't want to do that....... anyway.... if you're not doing that, you're thirsty. your body can't differentiate between hunger and thirst. you'll feel hungry if you need water.

I'm eating about 1300-1400 cals which isn't super low, but definitely not maintenece.
