The sad part of me thinks it's to avoid eating.

I drank water before I swam. I never drowned or anything like that. I had stopped for a minute to breathe when I threw up. I only swim for 60min or less by the way. Look at my diary if you think im not eating right. Then tell me I'm not eating right.
somewhere else you said 3 hours.
But doesn't matter
You are making yourself sick, like said before.
seek help!!!

You can hit ALL the requirements for a woman with a "perfect" diet (and your macro split is generally quite good!), but if your burn is too high for your fat mass and your intake, you will hurt yourself. You can't help it. With a deficit, you're basically sending a bill to your body to pay. You want your body to pay the bill in fat. But it can only get a certain amount of fat a day to put toward that bill. The rest of the bill gets covered by the rest of the mass in your body. Stuff you don't want to lose. That will also make you sick.
Does that make sense?0 -

Okay, you're 4'8", so that means that you CAN afford to lose the weight you want to lose. I'm so glad!!!!
You need to take it more slowly, though. You should run a deficit of no more than 1,000 calories right now. Though you're obese, you're also quite short. So set your ticker to give you 2lbs of loss per week and then eat more whenever you earn more through exercise.
If you aren't losing at about 2lbs per week, you can figure that you're overcounting your exercise and scale back a little.
If you are losing faster, you should eat a little more.0 -
Are you definitely 4'8?
edit: you're 18 and growing, that's why I ask.0 -
Yes, you ate and drank too much before you went swimming. If your stomach is full and you try and exercise you will have blood competing with digesting food, and pumping blood to your heart and organs to satisfy them. At some point something is going to give, and this caused you to throw the food up, so your body could handle the exercise.0

i think 5 tater tots and 1.5 oz chicken 3 hours before swimming is too much
She drunk to much for sure
Please read her diary before responding. The OP has some serious issues and need professional help
What she is doing is a kind of bulimia nervosa
( trying to train so much calories or more as you have ate)

Oh, and also, you should simply do less exercise.
3 hours a day of hard exercise regularly, especially for someone your age, is TOO MUCH! 0 -

That is a LOT of water. That's more than a day's worth for normal levels of exercise:
http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/water/art-20044256
I don't know where the water intoxication line is, but 7 liters sounds in the really-not-good-high range.
That alone could cause you to vomit:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyponatremia
If you're regularly drinking more than 3L a day, and you're sure that number is right, you should talk to a doctor--sooner rather than later.
7 liters is more than TWENTY-NINE cups of water. That is definitely in water-intoxication territory, especially for someone as small as you are.
It's probably a good thing that you threw up and probably has little or nothing to do with swimming.
There aren't hard-and-fast rules about water limits, but even 3-4 liters a day is a lot for you. It wouldn't be a bad idea to get yourself checked out by a doctor.
Tenkides, what is your native language?0 -
If you drank the 3 litres of water quite quickly, you may have been suffering from water intoxication, which would explain the vomiting. Or it could have been from drinking so much and then working out. Both bad ideas.0
-
Finally, if you're not quite 18 and you're saying you are to not get kicked off, you should have no more than a 500 calorie deficit. You'll still be growing a lot.
Even at 18, you MIGHT be growing some, and you want to give your body enough calories to do that. Both my mother and I grew half an inch in college. My chest didn't stop growing until I was 21.0 -

I have a few younger people on my friends list who didn't quite "get" TDEE at first and thought they had to exercise any deficit as well as eat a smaller amount. It can be an honest mistake. Some people to whom all this is new also think that more is always better.
That's why I try to explain WHY having too high a deficit is bad, in actual biological terms. A lot of people go, "Why don't you want me to lose weight?" Telling them that they must have an eating disorder (I've had a LOT of friends do crazy crash diets without having an eating disorder!) isn't always the most constructive.
Some might. But when we have tons of newspapers telling us we can lose 10lbs in 5 days or other crazy stuff, a lot of people don't see why that's not realistic.0 -

If you are needing that much water on a daily basis you might want to get a checkup. It is a symptom of quite a few illnesses.0

She should not be aiming for a 2lb loss a week - more like 1lb or even 1/2lb per week, she doesn't have enough to lose AND IS STILL GROWING too high a deficit could cause all sorts of problems.
OP - please go and speak to your doctor about your diet and water drinking - you are not eating enough and if you are really drinking 7l a day - you are seriously putting your health in jeopardy. There is a thing as too much water.0 -
Water intoxication is a very real thing and it can lead to death. Don't drink so much.0
-
You need to stop drinking so much water before swimming, or any excersise!! I also think your starving your body. No wonder your throwing up.0

Holy crap. Don't be sorry. I think it was something that needed to be said. Seriously OP. Stop abusing your body and overall health.0 -

So.. I'm a avid swimmer and I generally burp a lot after a good swim session. I think it's a function of breathing through your mouth and having to hold the air for a certain amount of time. I think some of that air goes in to your stomach. With the amount of water you drank your stomach was probably pretty full. It wouldn't take much to push it out. My assumption is that you episode was more like your stomach making space instead of a gagging one.0
