Well yeah I am getting about half of what this says I need but honestly I am just not a big eater, I never have been. I like just eating enough to get through my workout and my body sustaining itself for the rest of the day. I didnt get this big from eating a lot of food I got here only eating the wrong food and then never working out after I quit softball. Do I really need to up my calories to 1900 I am eating 600 - 1000 now? I dont know what to do but on another note sorry I wasnt on yesterday girlfriend came back in town  so I was doing a date night. But I got four pushups in and gonna hit up a workout now.....
Also, I need to push myself harder in workouts and not just give up as soon as it gets hard....my school offers some turbo and pump it classes and I think I am goinig to start going to those will help to have someone else push me  |
600-1000 calories? Girl, you scared me with those numbers! I don't think I need an MD to say that is not safe for you or anyone. Especially if you're working out. If you want to push yourself harder in your workouts, you need some complex carbs to give you energy. And after workouts your body needs protein to rebuild the muscles. Plus, like Shaina said, it's tough to get all the nutrients you need. Do you take any vitamins? I would kindly suggest it.
I've seen from your blogs and such, you're doing awesome so far!! But I am afraid if you don't take good care of your body along the way, you might get burned out.
