Well when you have to put "too" in front of something then it's never a good thing right I ate too much I'm too large I'm too skinny etc your body can get to such a point where instead of burning fat the body will begin burning muscle because it needs the fat reserves for the energy you're not consuming :( you're the person who needs to recognise what is TOO skinny and what's attractive
