how long before sign appears?
I'm 18, 5 foot 5 and 273 pounds. I normally eat between 400 and 700 calories a day but in the last 3 weeks ive been having anything from 14 calories from drinking flavour water to 700 calories. I last ate at 11pm on Wednesday 25th February and already feeling sick and have a headache. How long before I will faint?

My routine is
Monday ~ up at 7, leave at 8:30, work in a nursery with children aged 13~26 months from 9am ~5pm with one hour break but not eat. Get home at 5:30 get changed and watch tv, eat something at 11pm asleep by 12pm

Tuesday and Wednesday
sleep till midday, get up washed and dressed, leave at 1:30pm to walk to friends and sit and watch tv from 2~7pm then walk home for 8pm watch more tv eat at 11 then bed

    You don't have to starve yourself to lose weight. What you are doing is going to do more harm than good. Set your goal to lose a pound a week, hit your calorie goal, get active.

    If you're going to pass out, then that's no where healthy. You need to be alert and pro active especially around nursery children. Listen to USMCMP, she's awesome and can put you in the right direction.

    400 calories a day is ridiculous for anyone.

    Sounds like you're just being too lazy to eat.

    Yes, I'm not going to comment further because it will sound judgemental, but I'd be terribly upset if my nursery aged children or grandchildren were in the care of someone not alert. Do read other threads and learn a healthy lifestyle. You will see results immediately in your mental and physical health. Other benefits will quickly follow.

    Please stop everything you're doing and go eat something. You're hitting anorexic calorie levels. Your muscles, including your heart will start to deteriorate and you will still be left with a bunch of fat. If you want to lose fat you need to take it slow and do it healthfully. Make good eating decisions rather than how much you're eating to start.

    What you're doing is unhealthy and unsafe for yourself, you know this.
    INVOLVING SOMEONE ELSES CHILDREN IS SELFISH AND DANGEROUS!

    b) Profiles, groups, messages, posts, or wall comments that encourage anorexia, bulimia, or very low calorie diets of any kind will be removed, and may be grounds for account deletion. This includes positive references to ana/mia, purging, or self-starving. Our goal is to provide users with the tools to achieve their weight management goals at a steady, sustainable rate.
