If you are on your way to being anorexic, it's not good. You really should talk to a doctor. However, you didn't say how tall you are, so depending on your BMI, you could still be a normal weight for your height.

Once you hit the normal range, you should go back to a more balanced diet, and eat more calories, else you'll cause your body harm.

If only you could be in my head... Answered by sikashimmer on Aug 01, 2007, 10:56AM

At your current weight, height and age. Your rate of calorie burn factoring in daily activities: 2200

How many minutes per week do you run, cycle or play sports? (take hours and divide by 60)
Multiply those minutes by 8. ___

Then divide that number by 7.

Then add 2200.

Your answer is your daily calorie needs.___

Now subtract 500 from that number.___
This is your estimated daily calorie budget if you want to lose one pound a week. Subtract 1,000 to lose 2 pounds a week. Anything more and you'll lose more muscle than fat.

I hope these numbers help put things in perspective for you.
