Had ednos severe calorie restriction & over-exercise for 7-8 months, eating normally since feb2013 but now overweight & can't lose. what's happening?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Due to severe: Calorie restriction for 8 months - your body likely went into somewhat of a starvation mode with drop in metabolic rate. I may take a while to equilibrate back to normal. See you have anorexia. Are you working with a therapist ; nutritionist?
