Ive tried the calorie counter but cant seem to get it right.

My diet at the moment is:

Apple x 1

Lunch Tomato soup

Dinner Rice with chicken or anything as long as its small portions

My family have said I look awful and have said they will force me to the doctors unless I change so today I have started but its killing me I have weighed myself like every 2 hours I like my old diet so bad and don’t want to change.. L

My new diet from today

Oat so simple one sachet with semi skimmed milk

Apple

Tomato soup

Apple and strawberrys

Dinner – chicken and rice

I feel with the above im going to gain loads of weight… I don’t want to

Is this loads of calories as I’m finding this change very hard

Does anyone know how many calories my new diet woudl be round abouts?

please talk to a doctor. neither of your diets are healthy and your concern with gaining weight like that is a little obsessive. those are eating disordered behaviors. i have been in eating disorder treatment centers so i know an eating disorder one when i see one. please get help. i know its hard, trust me i know. but it really does help Smile
