If you are excercising, as for Drill Team, you need at least 1600-1800 calories per day. The lowest a female should ever go is 1200 calories per day.
Increase your protein to help your body build muscle tissue. Stay away from processed sugars and starches (no "white" foods or sugared sodas/drinks).
