messing my metabolism?
| Mon, 09-08-2003 - 8:43pm |
I have been in college for 2 weeks now and since ive been here i have probably cut about 600-700 calories out of my normal diet. my question is since this "crash diet" (caused by schedule conflicts w/ the cafeteria and gross food) will my metabolism also crash? Im afraid that if i start eating normal again that i will gain weight. How is this effecting my metabolism? i try to work out everyday both running and weights- does that have any effect? please help! thanks

**How is your weight normally darkmuffin. Do you feel you were overweight and about right now?
If you feel your wight is about right for you, is there anyway you can pick up some healthy foods like fruit, nuts, yogert for snacks? Your body I would think would need those calories to maintain the functions it normally does, especially since you are
working out. :)
I'm sorry, I really don't know how it will affect your metabolism but perhaps someone else here has some answers. :) Just try to get in balanced healthy food when you can.
And good luck with that school food!
