Hi, i have been dieting continuosly now for about 7 or 8 months. I have lost about 2 and a half stone, i am now 9 and a half stone and size 10, i want to get to size 8, but i am experiencing problems that i think are connected. Including severe dizziness, smell of blood, reduced libido, and my self esteem appears to be getting worse, not better. I also find it hard now to eat anything with calories over 150, if i do i feel guilty to the point where i will lose a lot of sleep, and be even more careful the next day. I also work out, and despite being quite fit sometimes i struggle to jog for 15 mins, which i know i am more than capable of running double that amount of time. Any ideas, or advice would be appreciated. Thanks

a diet is for life, once you change your diet it is permanent, because as soon as you begin to eat normally again you will put weight back on.


eating less isn't a good way to loose weight, if you are not getting all the vitamins and nutrients you need each day you will fall sick. you are dizzy because you are dehydrated, your self esteem is low because you are weight conscious. you cannot jog long because your lack of eating means you dont have the energy in your body to jog.

you need to exersize more and eat right. not eat less!
