Everyone has a set amount of calories, or energy, they need to simply be alive. Consistently eating less than this can cause your metabolism to slow down. 

If you’re trying to lose weight, for most of us it seems to make sense to cut as many calories from your diet as possible. Unfortunately, it’s possible to eat too little, which not only makes it harder to achieve a healthy weight

Here are some common signs you’re eating too little to support your body

  • You're thinking about food all the time
  • You're tired and cranky 
  • You can't sleep 
  • You're constipated
  • Your weight plateaus or increases 


BottomLine:
Over depriving your body of food or undereating won’t help you lose weight, and can often yield the opposite effect as well as lead to nutritional deficiencies.

So eat what is sufficient to support your body.
