Serious health problem in the making?

I think I am very unhealthy. First of all, I cannot put ANYTHING in my mouth without counting the calories and so-forth. And when I eat like something unhealthy say..A Chocolate Cookie or Apple Pie or something like that I will either not eat anything for the rest of the day, or force myself to exercise strenuously and burn off every single calorie. And every time I eat a meal, it’s always like 400 calories or LESS, and I’m tall (5’11) and need 2300 calories to maintain my weight. I weight 137 and I lost 60 pounds in about 2 months, so let’s say I have a minor eating disorder, I wouldn’t even say that! But the problem I’ve been having is every time I wake up in the morning I’m like very dizzy and can’t control myself for about 1 minute I’d say. I have low blood pressure already, and the drastic weight loss didn’t help any. I will say this right now before anyone asks: I DO NOT, repeat, DO NOT starve myself.

Answer #1

you’re not far from underweight. you may not starve yourself, but you do have an eating disorder. losing 60lb in 2 mths is a huge amount! you will feel ill because of the things you’re doing to your body. you need to get help for this. feel free to talk to me. good luck.

Answer #2

I wish I could lose weight that fast. I think your supposed to eat something for all the calories when burn off when exercising. You exercise even more then I do it sounds like so maybe technically you’re still starving your body because you use up so much energy.
