I'm 5"8 and 119lbs. I'm on holiday for a week with my boyfriend. I am only eating 800 to 900 calories a day and I know it's not enough but I don't know how to have more. Usually when not on holiday I only have between 1000 and 1100 calories anyway. Is it too little?

    You're eating too little, and you're underweight.

    You're pretty tall. Plus I think it's not recommended that women go below 1000-1200 calories. So my opinion would be that you're probably not eating enough.

    Ok thank you!!
  • Try eating peanut butter or nuts. High calories, in a small amount. You probably don't feel hungry enough to eat bigger/more meals so eating something like that should help you up your caloric intake
