@theknightlight Others have already given great advice, sp I'm thinking back to my 16yo self who was very much like you but also very much in a terrible relationship with my body, food, and exercise. Make sure you're doing it for the right reasons- having more energy, a fun hobby, me time...

@aplolgeticfreak Yep! Good thought on mentioning that. Thanks!

@lochie I was surprised that I had to scroll down this far to see someone mention tuna. Cheapish, high protein, great macros for people who track them.

@garg Sounds like body dysmorphia honestly.

@smooman Yes. She may feel fine now but fatigue, sluggish workouts, feeling foggy, etc. can creep up quickly- just as quickly as feeling energized can happen when fueling enough. OP, for reference, 1000 calories is less than what's recommended for my 3 year old.

@alexis82 1000-1200 calories, particularly if you're doing 45-60 minutes of intense cardio per day, isn't enough food. Think long game, and making sustainable choices. I disagree that there's something inherently wrong with that much cardio, but I'm also a 50-55mpw runner so YMMV, quite literally.
