What do you mean health complications? I know nothing about that tbh.
And about losing weight well i lost alot in one month and that drove my mum crazy she was going to kill me lol
why?
I don't fet it sorry :-/
jeez....
why was your mum going crazy that you lost a lot of weight?
how old are you OP?
Ah okay lol because she keeps telling me that what i'm doing is wrong and i know that, but i just wonna do it.
She tells me that ur gonna fall because of that
your mum is 100% right.
Yes and i admit that.
I tried a lot of diet plans but non worked for me i did my best but nothing worked untill i started doing this it kinda worked
define "kinda worked" ...
do you not think losing this amount of muscle is harmful? are you truly that clueless as to the potential problems with starving your body? are you really not questioning why you should be eating more than a toddler needs per day??
and why have you not answered your age?
No i never asked.
And my age is 190 -

Yep that's true, i've been eating 800 calories for over a month. But yesterday and today i had more lol i'm eating foods with more calories and i'm worries cz i don't wonna get back what i lost
Awesome - now keep up the eating like yesterday and today. Get those calories up to a healthy level before you do permanent damage to your health!
What kind of damage can you please explain more?
your body can only metabolise a certain amount of fat per day, so if your calorie deficit is too high it starts burning muscle. your heart is a muscle.
I'll be honest with you, i lost 10 KG of fat last month, and the month before i lost 4 KG of muscles and 2 of fat.
I started feeling pain in the heart area when i walk or do any physical work but i didn't bother asking
What? Why do you think you know whether you are losing fat or muscle so specifically?
I check it on expensive machines wich are (as the doctors said) 97% right
What type of machines?
I dunno tbh, but you just step on it and put ur age and height so it calculates ur weight, Fat, muscles and everything3 -

IDK what doctor told you that was 97% accurate but measuring on a scale has a much greater margin of error than 3%. Which would explain your rather impossible readings.4 -

I'm not too sure, i measured myself on more than one scale and it kept shoeing the same results3 -

Man i know it's wrong but i got it the wrong way i started thinking that i shouldn't eat more than 800 cal, now i feel guilty if i eat more, i wonna change but i dunno how to start and what to eat. It's a bit conplicated1 -

its only as complicated as you make it. If you're feeling guilt about eatign more than 800 cals of food, you need to see a doctor as that is a disordered way of thinking.1 -

So you're having health issues from losing too quickly, and instead of fixing the root factor, you're shrugging it off?
This is going to bite you in the butt. But hey, cardio function is totally overrated, right?0 -

yeah, who needs a heart that works... especially when you're only 19 :laugh:2 -
@Tariq_1997 - Hey, man! So, a lot of people are expressing concern about the 800 Calories that you say that you eat a day. I will chime in.....
800 Calories a day is a very very low total for a woman (a tiny woman at that) and all that much more "lowerer" for a dude.
Can you give us some stats (age, height and weight) and I will help you figure out what a different caloric intake value *could* look like.......
When you are so low things start shutting down and stop working....your body's sole purpose - to bottom line things - is to survive. It adapts to what you give it. Anyway, I will gladly help you.
There might also be a mind set concern here. But, let's get those stats - if you are comfortable - and see what things *could* look like and then let's figure out where the difference is....
Cool?0 -

Pretty sure they've been shared and spoken about in at least one of the many other threads the OP has started...1 -
Not only will LVCD damage the heart and other organs/muscles, it also has effects on brain function. Surely as a uni student, you might be concerned with your brain crashing during the middle of a exam.2

Apparently you are.
I think you need to see a psychiatrist for your clearly disphoria regarding your weight and why you think is acceptable behavior. "I know it's bad and dumb and will hurt me but I want to do it anyways" is a sign of someone who literally just admitted that they want to hurt themselves.
You don't need to cut your arms or anything like that to be causing self-inflicted damage.
You either need significant help in multiple ways, or you're a troll just looking to make trouble.
