am i eating enough calories a day?!


Question: Am i eating enough calories a day?
i eat anywhere from 500-800 calories a day. then usually work out for a few hours. oh i'm 13 and 5 ft. (i weigh 100lbs, and am trying to weigh 90)
is this healthy?

Answers:

...anything below 1200 calories a day is very unhealthy.

you probably aren't getting enough vitamins and minerals in your body.

you should eat every few hours small meals and eat a variety of food so you can get different nutrients that you need.

also your body needs energy from food to be able to work out

if you don't eat enough calories you're facing a chance at hair loss, brittle bones, bad teeth..etc..

i'm a health science major.



Around 2000 plus up to 400 depending on how much you work out.
Don't forget, as a teenager you still need lots of calories to fuel growth as well as the energy needed for all you do.
