Oh the joy of food??

Eating right is obviously important. Eating right, exercising, and getting enough sleep are perhaps the most important things to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. For people counting calories, something you should know, DO NOT EAT LESS THAN 1,200 CALORIES PER DAY!! You need that many to function properly and even then, that's a bare minimum.
I however didn't know this and deicided to see how many calories I eat in a normal day. The scary thing, I didn't even eat 1,000 calories, much less 1,200. When not enough calories are eaten, you can get some pretty bad cases of Malnutrition. If you're lacking in calories, you're probably lacking in vitamins and minerals as well. When the body is first deprived of calories, it burns up fat. That's pretty much crash dieting. Now, here comes the whopper, Once your fat stores are all used up, other things are used for energy. Guess what, it's your muscles and organs that are used for energy. Oh and it gets even better. You can die from this!! Over time all your organs and muscles will be wasted and you'll have nothing to pump your heart with.
So now comes the question, where do I get good calories. Not the empty kinds, but the ones that'll actually do something for you. What I use are a lot of granola bars and whenever I can get my hand on them, protein bars. While I don't know if granola bars are the best, they're filling and that's important.
