Maria!Maria! you aren't being nosey. My doctor doesn't want me to exercise because my bloodwork is showing muscle wasting and sweating/exercise tends to throw off my electrolytes. I get cramps and tired and woozy and pass out easily and the heat/sun/light is really draining for me and conflicts with my anti-convulsants for epilepsy. You are right--I could use a few more calories, but I am at a loss re: how to get them. I fill up so very quickly. I'm trying hard, though. I also have really bad teeth and just no desire of late to chew. Maybe I'm just bummed. Typical nervous tummy/gut response with regard to calories. I'm really physically lazy and my body fat percentage is really really low. I'm eating carrots and beets again, just for the sf and calories--go figure. It's strange--I just feel kind of like I have the flu or a virus, lately. Lack of sleep is a real appetite depressant. Yes, I'm totatlly an emotional undereater or under-exerciser. Years ago, I used to hike for miles all over the world and dance. I don't really need more than 1200 or 1400 calories to maintain my weight anyways. I'm tiny boned and somewhere between 5'6" and 5'7" in height. I don't own a scale, but my jeans are getting loser. Somedays, I'd rather sleep than eat! Plus, I'm a little too "healthy." I just don't eat much processed foods and I don't bake and I'm single and the only one I feed. Sorry for babbling.
