Replies Al Legator Posted at 9:06 am on July 13, 2008 It sounds like the classic symptoms of a control oriented eating disorder coming up. I'd suggest that you talk to a dietician or at least the school nurse if you have one, or your doctor and get a plan that offers *balance* in food quality and type vs quantity and calories. It's not as simple as jsut a calorie count. A plan will also help you defien a reasonable goal that will keep you healthy and enjoying your athletic life style. NightShades Posted at 8:53 am on July 13, 2008 No, you need at least 3 full meals a day. A nutrition bar is definitely not enough for breakfast. ManipulativeBitch Posted at 8:51 am on July 13, 2008 No, it isn't. You need to eat full meals at least three times a day in order to function properly (physically and mentally.) Latin Muscle Posted at 8:51 am on July 13, 2008 Eat more egg whites. 5 meals a day. All healthy. Aixi Posted at 8:51 am on July 13, 2008 Enough to survive.  Not enough to maintain a healthy metabolism. bravosquadsas Posted at 8:50 am on July 13, 2008 that isn't enough to eat at all.
