Answer #1

yes atleast get 2500

Answer #2

NO if you’re a dwarf. YES if your an ‘average’ height!

please dont do this “yes atleast get 2500” because if your smaller than average then you will put on weight. 2500k/cal per day is designed for an adult male weighing 82kg.

use this to workout what you personally need: http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm

Answer #3

yes very bad

Answer #4

yes, thats starving yourself soing this screws up your metabolism and your health it can also affect your periods and your fertility

Answer #5

I hear it isn’t good for you at all. I’m basically the same way though. It’s like I’m never hungry enough to eat that many calories. I don’t know about you, but apparently I am sposed to get about 2000. Today I had around 850, but I’m not trying to starve myself. It all depends on your body though. You can go to MyPyramid.gov and type in some info in the planner thingy and it’ll tell you how much you need.
