    has anyone looked at this girls's diet?? people are just throwing things out there.

    This, because you're not even getting a 1,000calories on most days, that's not safe. up your calories, and if you're losing weight, just make sure it's fruits/veggies, drink enough water as well. some nuts maybe and you're golden.

    right now, you're exercising off everything that you eat

    edit: people may not agree, but I don't advocate seeing a doctor for this. you need to just eat more. but I agree with the dietician part if you can't or don't know how to google what kinds of food are healthy.

    You are definitely not eating enough food. You should be eating your calories up. Eating healthy meals and snacks. Having a bowl of cereal in the morning is definitely not enough. You are having spells like this becaue your body is telling you its STARVED in a sense. Eat three balanced meals everyday and if you want a snack or two.......... have an apple or banana or some sort of veggie!

    You need to get to a doctor ASAP. You collapsed and have been in bed for two days and you're still in pain? You need medical attention, you don't know how serious this might be. It's not normal to always be dizzy and nauseous.

    Hi I totally agree with the gent who said you are playing with fire. you are playing with her life. Go and seek professional help. You shouldnt be feeling this way at all. Get off the fitness pal forum and go to Accident and Emergency now.

    Based on what training and/or professional research you've done? And what sort of assessment have you done on the OP to determine she doesn't need to see a doctor?

    Good Lord.

    I agree with Vingogly. I'm shocked someone would say that!!

    I was at work Saturday, I started to get very nauseous and dizzy. I work as a page in a library which means I put away everything that gets returned. I have to walk around and stand for 3 hours . I didn’t take my nausea serious since I always feel like that. I shook if off and kept going.
    I kept going to the back of the library (the children’s room) to sit down. I did this a couple times. But on a trip back everything went black. I couldn't hear, couldn’t breathe. I tried screaming but nothing was coming out. I was going to fall so I stumbled into the bathroom.
    I was shaking, sitting on the toliet. I gathered enough strength to get out and to call my parents and leave work early. I’ve been in bed since. I’ve been nauseous and dizzy. Everything aches. I had eaten half a muffin that morning which is a lot for me (for breakfast, work was at 10 to 1:30, I left at 1 though). I still don’t understand what happened to me. I missed new years.

    Today Monday, and the first day I can get up without unbearable pain in my chest and ribs. It's hard to get up without getting dizzy. Nothing like this has ever happened to me before. I’m scared and in pain.


    I don't knwo what triggered this and I'm afraid it has to do with my diet.
    help.



    *I cant see a doctor.
    Ive been eating less than this for months... this is a lot.
