I need help. i wake up late.like around 11pm and eat my first meal of the day around 1pm. but by the end of the day i have maybe only eaten 1000 calories for the day. i try to drink 8 glasses of water. which keeps me pretty full. but at the end of the day im not hungry,...well my question is ::is it bad to eat less than 1200 calories a day even though im not hungry..?
ps. when i do eat 1200 calories. i find myself feeling sluggush and lathargic, and eating when im not hungry just to get the calorie intake. THEN..maybe the next day or so i find myself eating because im bored/ or just because . also when i do eat 1200 caloies my stomach seems bigger the next day and it also reflects on the scale...any advice

    I asked about this earlier on my news feed.

    Try cooking with healthy oils to sneak in more calories. Incorporating more healthy fats in general will help.
