I have been looking this up. It's hard to find information on starvation that isn't given relating to eating disorders, and I want more than just that one branch of opinion. http://jaoii.lunarpages.com/bar.gif One article on POWs in Japan said they were on a "near-starvation diet of 700 calories per day". Most sources will agree that this is most definitely within actual starvation range. A diet article said that "to avoid triggering the starvation-adaptation response, you should consume at least 1,200 Calories per day if you’re a woman and 1,600 Calories if you’re a man." I think, though, that they were more concerned with the metabolism's slowing-down response than actual starvation. And I found a technical, encyclopaedic definition that seems pretty thorough: Starvation is classified into three categories based on caloric intake over time (Frisancho, 1981): 1. Acute - less than 600 calories/day for less than two weeks. 2. Semiacute starvation - less than 1100 calories/day for less than 30 days. 3. Moderate semistarvation - less than 1600 calories/day for as long as 24 weeks. Initial consequences of starvation are apathy, muscle weakness, and reduction of activity. Body weight loss is progressive. The body first extracts energy from carbohydrate stored in the liver and glycogen in muscles. Then the body burns fat to get needed energy for about two weeks. After that point both fat and Protein are used. After 24 weeks there is a loss of physical work performance. Individuals with a daily diet intake of less than 2,000 calories per day have impaired physical work capacity. Many sources agree that starvation causes some pretty typical behavior changes. Interestingly enough these new behaviors are the same as those usually found in eating-disordered people... a fixation on the body, an obsession with meal-planning and cooking, the tendency to hoard food or pictures of food, other compulsive-type ritualized patterns. I'm curious. How many of those traits do eating-disordered people start with, and how many show up on their own as a result of our food habits? A lot of doctors attribute our disorders to those traits, not the traits to the disorder, and therefore tend not to consider the possibility. And the article about the Minnesota starvation study has finally reared its pretty head. I'm so frickin' happy! I love this baby. It explains so many of those odd little quirks that plague me from time to time, and I think it's fascinating to see how starvation can turn almost anyone into an ED, at least for a while. I wonder if that's really how a lot of EDs begin. People with the tendencies start to diet, then their bodies kick into gear and yank them down. So it's not just a matter of willpower or self-control or "not letting a diet get out of hand" if some of us really can't mess with that without going nuts, is it? Go here to read the parts pertaining to the study, and here to find the whole thing (load the page, then click "psychoeducational"). http://jaoii.lunarpages.com/bar.gif untitled2.html An Endocrinologist Talks About Consequences of Starvation Problems Caused By Being Underweight IB Holocaust Project: Starvation, Cold, and Disease Levi - food, calories Primo Levi.

Last year's weight loss was between 115/111 pound's..back & fourth. Today the first day of new year's,I' started my new Food" and exercise Journal. To help me keep track of my food intake and calorie's,( Calorie's burned ) "Ive have been eating very healthy but "I think my problem with my last 12 pound's "Ive been chasing for at least two month's is ."IM burning more then half of the daily calorie's that im taking in!!! causing my own body to have to fight for the remaining calorie's so last week started staying around 2000 calorie's that is alot of food by the way if you are eating right and not junk food like fast food,candy, pop, for me exercise, and proper balanced diet has been my ticket to weight lose. Well I hope that you all meet your wight loss goals this year!

They never post here any way! so I"thought id tell every one out in band land to have a great new year!!! Be safe,get a driver if your going to tip a few back!
