I can't lose weight without passing out
The title basically says it all, but I need help.
My body fat is low right now, I'm trying to be on a slight deficit just to get more shredded.
Today I started my deficit, just a little under my manteinance. My blood sugar dropped harshly and I had to eat watermelon breaking my deficit.
One month ago, I passed out three times. I think it was low blood sugar. In the hospital, the doctor suspected of me having anorexia, due to my low weight. I was in front of my parents when asked and I was too embarrassed to admit it.
Last summer, I developed anorexia. Lost a lot of weight in one month. I restricted myself, I obviously didn't feel my best but I could easily eat one egg a day and keep living.
Now it seems possible.
I've read that maybe I'm developing diabetes. Maybe I've been restricting for too long. Maybe it's the amenorrhea. I'm not sure. But I really need help. I think I've just developed hypoglycemia but I need to know how to lose weight while having it.
Has someone experienced something similar? How did they manage to live with it?
I would appreciate any comments ;)!
