I know this doesn't sound like the normal problem people that are trying to lose weight have, but it's causing me concern. 8 days ago I dramatically changed my eating habits. I cut out all soda and I am now eating 6-7 cups of fruits and vegetables with 1 serving of protein a day. My problem is that 5 out of the last 8 days I have eaten less that 1000 calories for the entire day. Everything I've read said that a woman should not go under 1200 calories a day, and that anything under 1000 is considered anorexic. I eat regularly throughout the day and even fit in snacks on occasion. Are there healthy foods that are higher calorie that I can add to my diet? I'm afraid to start an excersize regimen because I worry that my body will go into starvation mode. Any help with this is greatly appreciated!

Oh yeah I should also add that I eat 2 servings of dairy a day as well. Thanks

Add more healthy foods. It's that simple!

A sweet potato with shredded cheese as a side for dinner. There's always room for more veggies or an extra salad.

Nuts are high calorie and still good for you

Thanks emland didn't think of that. I'll have to try adding some almonds and such. I also found out mangos are a higher calorie fruit so I added one to my smoothie today:)
