For the workouts you're doing- it seems to me like you're not eating nearly enough to keep your body properly fueled. (I'm not a doctor, tho, I only play one on TV).My basal metabolic rate is 1200 calories a day. That's just what I need to function. If I workout and burn 1000, I need to eat some of that to be able to function. I guess it depends on how tiny you are to begin with, and how many calories you need just to function each day. Just seems like not enough with all the exercise you are doing. Of course, I could be wrong (I *am* currently 15 lbs overweight, so I'm probably not one to give nutrition advice).
