    That's probably an indication that you need to eat more, so yes.

    Eat a sandwich, you'll feel better
  • You haven't been anywhere close to meeting your caloric goals, according to your food diary. I get that feeling if I haven't eaten enough protein, but you probably need to try to eat closer to your goals.

    ^This. Eat more. I looked at your diary and you're not eating nearly enough for a man.

    You're not eating anywhere near enough sodium, you should definitely increase your intake to try and meet the 2500 per day. It's ok to be over, but there is a point where it's too little as well.

    Looking at your diary, you have been eating significantly under your goal, and it could well stem from that. Make sure, as others have said, that you try to eat enough to sustain your body. You are working out hard, and your body needs lots of water and carbs to help make up for the water lost as sweat and for the glycogen you use up while working out.

    I highly recommend going to see your doctor, though, and see what he/she has to say.

    How many calories are you eating? Is this "low calorie diet" doctor recommended?

    You are experiencing shakiness because you are not eating enough. You feel shaky after running and strength training most likely because your blood sugar is low from not adequately fueling your body prior to working out.

    I have been eating very less 1400 calories per day with near about 700 burnt :/

    I think its low blood pressure...

    I hope it gets fine when i start eating more ..i will give my body rest today...

    You are experiencing shakiness when standing up because your blood pressure is dropping suddenly from not eating enough sodium. Make sure you are eating at least 2500 mg a day.

    That is extremely dangerous. I suggest you find your TDEE. http://iifym.com/tdee-calculator/

    Considering I can lose a pound a week eating 1840 calories, you can most likely eat well over 2000 and still lose weight.

    Go to the website I provided and find out what your TDEE is. Then eat however many calories it tells you your body needs.
  • Low blood sugar causes shakyness. I saw that you're eating 1400 and burning 700 cals, that's probably why. You're netting 700 calories a day and you're just not getting enough food. Eat more, feel better.

    You only really need 500mg of sodium per day. It may be increased if you're exercising a lot, but that 2500mg is an upper limit. You should be trying to stay under that.

    There are also some people that need more sodium, but that's something for a doctor to diagnose.

  • Calculate TDEE Your BMR is:
    1773
    CALORIES/DAY
    Your TDEE is:
    2671
    CALORIES/DAY

    So i should eat atleast 2200 calories?

    Veggies and fruits have barely any sodium. CANNED veggies have a lot of sodium though.

    You need to eat things like cheese, salted nuts, bacon, pretzels, popcorn, deli meats, chicken, soup, salad dressings, jarred sauces.

    Eat these things in moderation of course as too much sodium is not good for us.

    You're not eating enough. Increase your calorie goal by reducing your weekly weight loss goal. Try to keep your goal 1/2-1lb per week, it will increase your calories and this will help you from feeling shaky.

    FOOOD!!! I AM COMING!! LOL
