-- Posted by Anonymous at 6:07 am on Aug. 17, 2008 Okay so I used to be a swimmer and I would practice 8 times a week, probably burning upwards of 2000 daily calories from exercise alone. During that time I struggled with an eating disorder so I was only consuming 800 calories worth of food each day. Since then I have decided to quit swimming. I now eat around 1000 calories a day and I burn around 500 through exercise. Will I still continue to lose weight, or will my weight start to go up since I'm burning less, considering what I'm eating? -- Posted by Reefer at 6:09 am on Aug. 17, 2008 You are good for now. -- Posted by Leah Louise at 6:31 am on Aug. 17, 2008 I say do the swimming but eat a little more. i have ana/mia and i still do kickboxing where i burn 2000 calories each day. allthough i only do it 2 times a week
