obsessive/extreme CRON: another issue

[Guest guest]

There's another issue that I don't recall being brought up. And that is if

one is close to the " edge " with no fat reserves at all, what happens if you

get sick? Say a bout of diahrrea or an illness where you could lose more

significant weight, and get very weak and/or malnourished if you're skirting

close to the edge as it is. Thinking about it, it sounds pretty dangerous.

We're not lab rats in a cage. We take risks all the time; one could wind up

in a car accident for example, or catching a bug from someone we come into

contact with. In that case, anemia or extreme low weight may cause more

harm than good .
