for the past 3 weeks i went on a bit of a starvation diet.
i havr 700 TOPS calories a day, usualy from the 400-600 range, on bad days 700.
i got my period 4 times in one month and iALWAYS have to make number 2.
i feel like anything i eat just come out.
i dont eat enought to be making so much but i do!
is everything ok with me? is htis normal?
do you think me getting my period 4 times (maybe 3) in one month relates to this? i have 2 anorexic friends that DONT get their period bc they dont eat...
whats wotn with me! (link)

Yes, see a doctor. There are some other things you might want to take a look at. Your body does all kinds of strange crazy stuff when you aren't getting enough nutrition. I did calorie restriction when I was in high school, oddly enough my magic number was usually 700 calories as well. I lost weight at first and I also stopped having my period for about 9 months. What I didn't count on was that my metabolism was going to screech to a halt because I wasn't eating enough. Once I finally made myself eat my period has never been regular, sometimes I will bleed for up to 2 months. You may want to research a better diet plan-one that will give you enough of the things that your body needs-vitamins, protein, fiber, etc. and see if your symptoms clear up. Also, if numbers are your thing, check this out to see how many calories you should be eating to attain your desired weight
