should I stop or continue? (diet)

hi so I've been eating 400-600 calories a day for about 3 weeks (and 800-1200 for a few months before that) and my mum has been getting mad at me for basically only eating a chicken breast and some fruit/veg and complaint of how there is nothing to me however I still feel very overweight. I have been noticing I get tired easily and have trouble remember things. she wants me to eat more but I really don't want to as I want to lose weight and not gain any by eating more.....what should I do?

(for context, I'm female, almost 17, 5 foot 4 and weigh 7 stone 4 as of today)

...I have been noticing I get tired easily and have trouble remember things.

Your eating is disordered and continually posting about it on here is not healthy for you.

I’d advise you to get some help from a responsible adult.

This is the first time I've posted on here? And I am generally curious on what to do as I find face-to-face conversations with strangers (e.g. doctor's) very hard to do so I want to make sure if it is even worth worrying about

you sound exactly like I did when i had an ed. I recognise what you're saying, and I know how hard it can get. You can try to convince yourself all you want that what you're doing id healthy, or good for bikini season or whatever but please recognise that eating that amount is completely disordered and sounds like it could lead to hospitalisation
eating disorders are serious and scary, please please talk to somebody. one of the ways they're so dangerous is that people really do not want to get out of them, but they're so ridiculously dangerous it's important to get some help.
I really admire you posting on here because it suggests some part of you does recognise it's not normal to be eating that little, and once you admit that to yourself you can start to find some help.
I really do wish you the best, EDs are scary and can feel so trapping. There is a point where you won't be trapped by obsessing over food any more and can enjoy eating again, and I guess that doesnt sound so good to you at the moment but it really is.
You are absolutely not overweight, I think you should worry about being underweight! I'm five four too and a good amount heavier than you. I put on a stone-ish since recovering from my ed and the only real difference is my boobs have grown, I feel physically stronger and my periods are back to being regular. I know weight gain is terrifying (seriously I know) but if you have help it can change your mindset and it might not seem so bad anymore.

Also, noticed somebody say underneath that 1500 kcals a day is "normal for your weight and height". That's false, and dangerous. As an older teenage girl, 2000 is the recommended healthy. It can be more depending on how active you are.
Best of luck and I really do hope you can get some help. I'm sure somebody else will reply and be able to give better advice than me, but please please talk to someone.

ps - i don't mean to sound critical, but eds can get morbidly competitive and putting your height and weight on a public page may be really damaging to somebody else. not trying to invalidate your feelings but putting numbers can be triggering to those with an ed or those recovering

I find that hard to believe:

And I don’t find your intentions to be genuine at all tbh.
Like I said, speak to a responsible adult.
