To be honest I'm a bit concerned about how much -- or, rather, how little -- you're eating. The very minimum that a woman should eat while attempting to lose weight is 1200 calories, which you're around. However, another thing you need to consider is your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR).
Your BMR is how many calories you'd need to survive in a coma, just to keep your essential organs (brain, heart, lungs, etc) functioning. Here is an online calculator of BMR. I calculated yours by guessing your age to be 18, and I got 1603 calories.
If you eat under your BMR, you could sabotage your weight loss attempts by sending your body into starvation mode. You'll lose for a few days, but your body will then realize you're not getting enough energy, and it'll convert everything you eat into fat and get energy from your muscles instead.
Especially if you're going to be exercising, I'd suggest eating at least at your BMR. If you've been eating below for a while, you could gain a bit when you first switch, but it should flatten out and start going back down again once your body realizes it's getting enough fuel again. If you're set on eating below your BMR, please please please see a nutritionist for a detailed nutrition plan to make sure you're getting enough nutrients to make up for the lack of calories.

Due to pain in my stomach (non-period related), I have been in bed for these past few days mostly, therefore I didn't eat frequently or that much, but I still tried to eat as much as I could. I'm feeling better now and I hope the pains will end by tomorrow (it hurts less and less). So here are the missed days on which I haven't posted:
Day: 04 Date: Feb. 12th, 2010 Mood: sick Weight: ? Calorie Log: pancakes - 500 milk - 180 apple - 65 36 unsalted crackers - 640 TOTAL 1385 Exercise: / Reflections: Felt sick, slept a lot.
Day: 05 Date: Feb. 13th, 2010 Mood: sick Weight: ? Calorie Log: french toast; 3 pieces - 456 milk - 180 apple - 65 36 unsalted crackers - 640 5 saltine crackers - 50 TOTAL 1391 Exercise: / Reflections: Feeling better, still slept a lot during the day (couldn't fall asleep at night due to pain.)
Day: 06 Date: Feb. 14th, 2010 Mood: ok Weight: ? Calorie Log: 2 panini (home made) - 540 milk - 180 apple - 65 TOTAL 785 so far Exercise: / Reflections: Feeling better, stomach still hurts sometimes at night, but it's getting better. If it persists though, I will go to the doctor.
