about two weeks ago I weighed 134 pounds. I wanted to lose some pounds and get fit so for about a week I ate 1000-1200 calories a day and worked out very heavily. at the end of the week was at 129, and had also lost 1% body fat! I was really excited so I continued doing that. This past week I have been eating about the same. I have also been exercising, except that instead of doing the elyptical machine, I have been running a lot. I've run 6 miles a day three times this past week!
I got on the scale tonight and I was 135 and my body fat had increased.
I was so excited about losing weight last week! what am I doing wrong, this just doesn't make sense! I have been exercising so much this week, biking, running, crunches.
please help, I felt so happy last week and now I feel even worse than before I started this whole thing (link)

Well first of all, if you normally eat 2000 calories a day, it's not healthy for you to suddenly jump to 1000.
And just so you know, muscle weighs more than fat. So if you've been gaining muscle and losing fat, you should be weighing more.

This is long but please bear with me, this is not about a boy or about my period this is about my health. 14/f
Last friday I was having a panic attack, it caused a terrible headache very suddenly. I got very little sleep. On saturday I was still very stressed out, and my headache wouldn't go away, and I was screaming so my Mom took me to the ER, they said I was dehydrated, they put an IV in me, gave something to make the pain in my head go away, and something that made me get knocked out fairly quickly. I came home only about six hours later, and slept through the night.
On sunday I tried to ignore the weird feeling in my head and just go outside, figuring it was just the medication i'd had at the hospital, but it became increasingly hard to ignore the feeling. I continued to have panic attacks throughout the day. I barely ate anything that day, looking at food made me absolutely sick, and i'm not usually like that. I had a horrible nights sleep again, I had to lay with my Mom the whole time, and even then I only got a few hours.
On Monday I just had panic attacks continually, when one would go away within ten minutes i'd have another. I still was in no mood for food, but I felt hungry and mal nourished. All I hate that day was peaches. I started feeling dizzy and light headed, and started feeling this odd feeling of nausea not in my throat, but in my head.
Yesterday my mom took me to the chiropractor, she adjusted me and said my neck, back, head and whole body was out of whack and that was what was probably causing my headache. I got a massage later that day, too, which made me sleepy. All I ate yesterday was peaches as well. I had a very small amount of soup, some oatmeal, and drank some water. I felt like I could collapse.
Last night's sleep was terrible, and horrifying. I couldn't breathe, I was so hungry yet anything I put in my mouth I wanted to toss out, and my heart started going very fast. When I was lying about to go to sleep, I very suddenly jerked up and grabbed my heart. I thought I was having a heart attack, I was scared and I thought I was going to die; I was scared to fall asleep because I thought I might not wake up.
This morning I woke up and felt miserable, I couldn't go back to sleep when I wanted to, and my mom took me to work ith her. I took some corn bread, and a peach and I ate most of what I took, but I still felt very removed and light headed.
My Mom took me out for pizza a little later and I ate three small pieces, and I felt relieved because I thought I was finally going to feel better. But I came home and I started feeling dizzy again, and very hungry, and i could feel the post nasal drip in my throat and my eyes started to water; but what scared me was that it was not from my tear ducts, but from the top of my eyes, almost. I have never had allergies before but I think that's what it feels like, i'm not so sure. I didn't have a panic attack, but I felt numb. My head feels like it isn't a part of my body, and I'm scared that i'm going to die.
I feel terrible, I really do. I know that anxiety can come out in physical symptoms, but I don't think this is healthy. My face is drawn, I haven't had a good night's sleep since I was drugged up, and I have terrible tension in my shoulders and my neck.
I honestly don't know what to do anymore. My mom refuses to take me to the doctor insisting that this is all anxiety based, but it's not healthy to feel light headed for this many days in a row.
Please, please tell me what to do. I don't know how I can feel normal and I don't know what's wrong with me. Could this be from lack of food and sleep? Or should I get it checked out? Please help me as soon as you can because I'm so scared (link)

I honestly don't know what's happening with you, but it certainly sounds very scary!
Since this has been going on for a few days now, I would definitely recommend going to see a doctor.
Anything abnormal happening with your body that neither you or your family can explain with certainty should be checked up on by a professional, even if it turns out to be something minor like anxiety.
Hope you get better!

is there any way on facebook that you can make it like no one [not even people in ur network] can send u a message unless their your friend? pleaseee anyone with answers i would really appreciate it (link)

The Facebook default is that anyone can message you, even if they can't see your profile.
So if you don't want random people messaging you, do this:
1. Go to the Search section of the Privacy page. (The Privacy link is at the top of the page between Account and Logout)
2. Under the "What Can People Do With My Search Results" section, uncheck the box next to "Send you a message."
That way, when people search for you, the option to message you isn't there, and the only way they could would be if they were your friend!
Hope this helped! :]
