People going way under on calories

Pebble321

My personal view is that people should eat their calories to stay healthy, especially if they are exercising, but I can respect the fact that everyone is at a different place in their weight loss journey and there could be a million different reasons why they haven't eaten them. I don't see it as my job to be the calorie police, it's not my body!

I don't congratulate people for "being under their calories" unless I know a bit about them and have actually looked at their diary for the day. I also don't congratulate (in fact, usually don't comment at all) if people burn enourmous amounts of calories because I can't understand how that can be healthy either. It may be right for that person, but without knowing that for sure, I'm not going to say "great job" randomly.

I'm much more likely to comment when someone posts an actual update saying "I'm so happy that I ran for 25 mins today" or something like that.

I see some of that too and don't say anything.
If anything, I would ask why they are eating so little.
