Determine your activity level and your current weight. A moderately active man should multiply his weight by 15 to determine the minimum amount of calories he needs each day. For example, a moderately active male who weighs 150 pounds should consume a minimum of 2,250 calories to meet his body's energy needs. A sustained 1,200 calorie diet would be very unhealthy. A relatively inactive 120 pound female multiplies her weight by 10 calories to determine she would need only 1,200 calories each day. This woman could sustain a 1,200 calorie diet with no ill effects, provided the food she eats meets all her nutritional needs.

Good for you...

I lose more eating more of the right things and less of the wrong things. I eat when I'm hungry. I don't when I'm not. Whether that's 500 calories a day or 2200, it doesn't matter to me. When your body is healthy, you can trust your own hunger. Good times.

love this!

^^^HAHA

Do what you want. My mom did and lost her hair. But dangit she was skinny.

I would rather be skinny and bald, than fat with hair.

In for the gifs...

gawd my stomach already hurts.

I think this is one of my favorite gif's ever...

The guy with the chair makes me laugh every time. Seriously though, OP, are you planning on eating like that forever? If not, how soon do you expect some of that weight to come back? I have several friends on here that have lost significant weight like you, but did it eating a healthy amount of calories. I'm not trying to be ugly or negative... I think that is a legitimate question.

Ahhh...roid rage is awzum.

She also did laxatives, maybe that is an option for you. Of course now, she has hair and fat and she has severe IBS and COPD from the smoking. But every body is different.



So it's not necessarily her weight, rather it was being thin by smoking and taking laxatives. There's the "no no" take away.

Actually no, laxatives came much later when she was struggling to get the weight back off. My mom had a eating disorder that started with 1000 calories a day and the idea that you have to strave to lose weight. When that plateaued, she went to 800 then 700. That is when she lost her hair. When the weight came back, she did laxatives. And it was later she started smoking. She was so unhappy with her self and it tied to her weight.

I am not judging anyone, it is everyone private journey. For me, I would rather lose the weight properly and at slow pace.

Currently. I eat 1911 based on the TDEE and I am losing. No starving, no eating under my BMR and no laxatives.

I make my choices based on the hell I have seen my mom go through.

But once again, people have their own path.

but don't you do P90X and Insanity. I'm pretty sure that you no longer qualify as an "inactive woman"
