Letsride, I admire your spunk AND your ability to hear what everyone advised in this thread rather than getting defensive or just blowing everyone off. Everyone jumped on the band wagon because your physical symptoms were alarming and it did seem you were more interested in looking a certain way for others rather than listening to the very noisy red alert signals from your body.

You are young, vital, and active and the 1400 calories you were consuming was not enough to keep up with rebuilding your tissues and keeping you healthy. Whether you need a counselor or not or a nutritionist or not is for you to decide but my advice would be to treat your body like it was your best friend. It really is, after all, your best and closest friend.
