What does it mean if you get really cold when dieting?

__A_YAHOO_USER__ asked:
I am 11 years old and started a very strict diet last week but now my fingers are cold at the top and it is really hard to get warm. I am very careful with my calorie in take because I make sure I only get about 900 and something each day. Am I putting myself at risk?

yeah, 900 cals is a bit low….move up to 1500, which is still low, and make sure you are eating healthy long term carbs your body can burn for warmth, like oatmeal

yeah, how much do you weigh? you aren’t getting enough calories, the same thing has happened to me in the past. the best thing to do is to eat way more fruits and veggies and just excersize more. you need more circulation for your body to be warm…

900 calories?! That’s way too few. You need to talk with a doctor or at least your parents before you start a new diet. The effects are obviously showing by you not being able to keep warm. Keep hydrated and eat healthy meats, fruits, and veggies. Don’t focus on calories right now, just focus on the healthy portions and what you’re eating.

YES, 900 calories isn’t enough. One of the affects of being anorexic is getting cold constantly.
Second of all, your 11. You shouldn’t be worrying about that.

900 calories is to low!
I think that’s to strict. I think you should eat no less than 1300 or more. It depends on your activity level too.
You can add on more calories in a healthy way by eating more fruit and veggies i bet you’ll feel better to by eating more than what you are.

Not enough calories, maybe not enough protein/iron.

This actually makes me really sad.
You’re still a child.
11 years old.
My brother is 10 my cousin is 11 i can’t imagine them on a diet.
Sweetie, even if you see yourself as fat you are not, when you are a child you have puppy fat and it NATURALLY goes away. Please don’t do this to yourself :/
