My daughter has been practicing fitness intensively for a year, also with Ewa Chodakowska. She is 15 years old, follows a restrictive diet. Completely eliminated fats. He eats porridge with fruit, with yogurt or milk 0.5%. Lunch is pan fried without fat, sometimes with chicken breast or lean soup. Two hours of training between meals. Dinner is a vegetable plate with yogurt and ketchup. Drinking water. Her period has stopped for 5 months. It worries me very much. I'm afraid it will affect her he alth.
It is already affecting her he alth, as she has had her periods stopped for 5 months. There is such a thing as an addiction to he althy eating and sports. It very often affects young girls, often those who have low self-esteem and do not believe in themselves. Behaviors such as losing weight or not eating - are related primarily to the emotional sphere, i.e. problems with experiencing feelings, talking about them and showing them. Losing weight may also be related to attracting the attention of loved ones. I think it would be good for you to get your daughter to a dietitian and a psychologist so that your daughter would start individual therapy. Losing weight on your own can end badly for her. Here, first of all, the help of a professional dietitian and psychologist is needed.
