Am I Ill or Overdoing the Diet?
Very recently I weighed just over 17 stone, I'm 29 and my height is 5'10".
I have recently been dieting on a low calorie diet, drinking water and keeping my calories to around 1,000 per day.
I have been hitting the Wii fit for around an hour every day
Now in 2 weeks I have lost 8lbs
Recently I have been getting some symptoms similar to flu. My skin is on fire to the touch, i run hot and cold, and i get dizzy spells and headache.
Am I overdoing it or is it just an illness?

You're not overdoing the exercise, but you might need to drink more water.
I suggest upping your calorie intake by 200 calories a day, what you have seems a little much.
4 pounds a week is rather a lot, I think.
If you're not feeling well, just have light things like soups and toast until you feel better, and don't go worrying about calories anyway. It could be a touch of the 'flu, so take a day of do just resting (no WII) and eating light food.

You need to slow down check with the good old doctor. It might just be flu but I think your overdoing it. You can check your symptoms online and see your best and worst case scenarios.
