Just discovered you! You're not eating enough. I eat around 1500 calories a day these days. I weigh 108 at my highest and I am 5 2. Some days I eat more like 1700. I exercise most days but not like a maniac or anything. When I was losing weight, I would eat very low calorie days like you did (I had similar weight loss trajectory: 137 - 102 -- well, 99 at my lightest but these days 102- 106) at 5'2". My advice: eat a bit more on regular days, and work in some exercise where you can. Pilates is amazing, wish I had done it in the beginning so I could have used the strength I had from carrying extra weight and built that into toned sculpted muscle. But oh well... I didn't get serious about exercise into two and a half years into CR! Anyway, I don't feel like much of a role model most of the time... I do stupid stuff and feel awful and try to get back on track just like everyone else. The key is, we're doing things the healthy way, and even when we screw up, we're headed in the right direction. Hang in there! april Hey there…

I totally agree with Sara's comment. They can really stick their feet in their mouth..at the drop of a hat. I will say one thing..you are really low on your fats..and the good ones will really help take the edge off some things. perhaps you can take some fish oil caps or lecithin to boost the omega 6:3 ratio. take care, D Sorry to hear that.
