My pants are getting tight

And I'm panicking. I'm on serious damage control from now until Christmas

Is that really low?
I don't think it is at all.

I can't do 500 a day anymore, no matter how hard I try.

[alexythmia]

Yeah, it's pretty low, 900 is considered starvation. Another thing I find interesting is apparently the holocaust victims were given a diet of 1200 calories while in concentration camps.

I used to be able to restrict like nobody's business and I never felt deprived. I don't know what happened to me!

Even when I read facts like this, I can't register that calorie count as starvation. I think it's because I can eat 800 a day and not get hunger pains. Hunger signifies starvation idk.

[alexythmia]

I'm the same way. I feel like a cow sometimes even for eating 800 calories.

Well I'm really glad you are eating the calories you posted because it's better in the long run.

I allow myself about 1,000 a day right now.
