A member asked:
Like the gym, but w/eating disorder hx, wont go if i havent eaten >/= 1200cal. little appetite w/concerta, so dont go much. overkill or just cautious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
1200 calories a day: is too few. That is for weight loss, not maintenance for a woman. You should be eating more even if your appetite is low due to meds. Once you increase calorie intake you will be able to do moderate (2 - 3 times a week) exercise which is healthy.
