    I have a friend who has what some people consider horrible eating habits and I can only imagine the comments she would elicit on here if she was on here. She only ever eats once a day and maybe and I stress the maybe eats 600-700 cal / day - she's 5'8, 126lbs works out 3x/wk minimum and is incredibly healthy and fit .

    Sorry I'm calling BS on this one.........your friend eats at 50% of her BMR and works out and (your words) is incredibly healthy and fit. She's barely getting enough calories, according to you, to maintain brain function - I suspect you're not getting the whole story from her.

    If you don't believe that she's pulling your leg do a little research on how the nazis systematically killed prisoners in concentration camps through starvation (pay particular attention to the caloric intake they allowed prisoners....)

    Someone who unfriends you for that is one flakey person - I wouldn't give it another thought!
