    If your really eating 2500 cals and still losing weight, a female at 117, your BMI is at the low range, Hopefully your getting the approximately correct share of carbs, protein and fats..... I definitely would go to see a doctor.

    No meat is fine, but how do you eat 2500 calories a day of fruit?

    Get your thyroid checked. Could be hyperthyroidism... the opposite of hypothyroidism. Could be thyroiditis.

    Could be that you still aren't eating enough.

    Could be other health issues... good to check with a doctor.

    it says 1880 now I suppose that will work

    You can do a custom set up to the 2500 or whatever it is you want.

    I will start with what it says and eat back my work out cals if I still lose weight I will increase that would work right?

    Yes - that will work perfectly. Maybe take some measurements as well.

    Re-*kitten* every couple of weeks but there is a good chance you are just not eating enough. Oh and make sure to get enough protein to fuel those weight workouts.

    Oh and if most of your diet is fruit then I bet you are not eating anywhere near enough and defo not enough protein for lifting. Try for 0.8g of protein per lb of body weight.

    good luck :flowerforyou:

    Don't do protein powder - you'll get ridiculously bulky.

    Maybe try another protein power - you could get a few samples and see how your stomach feels on them, though since you're eating all the food :wink: I'm sure you can get enough from cheese, nuts, lentils, tofu etc.

    Maybe less fruit more cheesestrings :laugh:

    lol yeah some cheese would be tasty I think I have not eaten it in about 4 years not really sure why. I hear oatmeal has quite a lot of protein? Idk I just eat what I want maybe I should change that a bit

    You don't need a clinic or doctor you need to actually eat enough food! How on earth can you claim to eat 2.500 cals daily when you don't track it and you mainly eat fruit.
