Everything is starting to hurt

If you continue with your current routine you are really going to f*uck up your body. Stop it, now. What you're doing is dangerous. If you don't believe me, go talk to a doctor.

You sound borderline retarded. Has this always been the case?

You're fvcking up your body. No fruits or vegetables? No whole grains? Only 1200 calories a day and running almost every day of the week? That's ridiculous.

You're being self-destructive. Go talk to someone about it, preferably a doctor.

You do understand that your body REQUIRES a set amount of calories for you to LIVE, right? From what I've read the the absolute MINIMUM you body needs is about 1000 calories/day (for a comatose person). Since you are not getting enough energy to sustain your life from food, you're catabolizing tissues and blood proteins. Your body doesn't pick which, just which ever is readily accessible. For example, during and after running, your calorie deprived muscle cells will catabolize each other to get the energy they need to survive. Also, by forcing your body to feed off of itself, you are not allowing it to heal properly and the inflammation process doesn't attenuate as it should - which is likely the cause of the joint pain.

You need to eat more and better, just cutting back the running is a band-aid over a larger problem

Completely agree. Please, for the love of God, see a doctor.

Your body is robbing itself. Lean pockets and Diet Coke is far from a healthy diet. You're lacking a huge amount of nutrients and your body is pulling those from the soft tissues like the cartilidge in the joints and the disks in your back.

Eat more calories
Change your diet. Eat fruits and vegetables. Throw away your Diet Coke and never touch that stuff again. Add some nuts to your diet and cut back on eating Lean Pockets every day.

You need to come to terms with yourself that you've got to seek professional help.
But, I have a feeling you're not going to take that advice either.
Numerous people have suggested that you change your diet and it seems like you are not convinced. I think you should maybe hire a trainer or a dietician. (sp?)

I also suggest you pick up some Omega3 supplement in the short term to help your soft tissue repair. Then start eating some fish.

Body fat is vital to daily body functions. It cushions the joints and protects the organs, helps regulate body temperature, stores vitamins and helps the body sustain Itself when food Is scarce.

You're too thin for a guy. At 5'7" you should probably weigh around 150-160lbs. Cut out the cardio, start lifting some weights and eat more. The Kate Moss look doesn't even look good on women!

This is the absolute 100% truth, wether you want to believe it or not.. I'm 5'10 with very little (bordering on no) fat on my body & I weigh 185lbs!
You seriously need to go see a doctor AND get some good advice about how to eat a healthy diet... do it now or you'll pay a steep price later!

Do NOT run on cement that much
Iknow some guy that did hard-core cross-country for 1 year and his knees hurt all the time now
