500 or less calories.


Question Posted Sunday April 1 2007, 7:05 pm

I don't understand why it's "dangerous to only eat 500 calories or less per day. I've been doing it for a long time and I feel fine. Like today for instance, I had a small bowl of cheerios with almond milk for breakfast, romaine lettuce salad with Italian dressing for lunch, Jamba Juice, and then sushi for dinner. All in all, I had about 500 calories today. I feel fine and I ate 3 meals anyway. So what's so "dangerous" about it?

Just so you know, jamba juice smoothies are like 400 calories themselves.

It is not weird that you feel find eating 500 calories a day, but it is not very healthy. On average, most people are supposed to eat around 2000, so you are not getting enough nutrients. This could lead to you fainting, getting sick easily, loosing too much wait, becoming very weak, or even loosing hair. You need to either make bigger meals or snack more in between your meals. Your health could be at a very high risk and you need to recognize that food is essential for everyday energy. Good luck.

The normal intake is about 1200 or a little more. I'm not sure. I just know that to get all your nutrients & proteins, 500 calories just isn't enough.
