I'm 5'0" and eat 1500 calories. My story of weight loss.
Hi fellow MFP'ers, Upon the new year I have noticed a lot of new people with a lot of questions. There's been a lot of the whole 1200 calorie argument thing.

Been feeling really sick
So ever since I've upped my workouts, I have been feeling really sick all of the time. I've been lightheaded, nauseated, dizzy and just exhausted. The day after a really hard workout I feel especially bad. Yesterday I thought I was going to faint in a meeting at work. I've been trying to eat back a little of my workout…
