    From your ticker, it looks like you only have 13 pounds to lose. Have you set your weight loss to be 0.5 pounds per week? Anything higher would be too aggressive for that amount of weight to lose, and you would indeed be hungry.

    I haven't eaten under 1650 ever and I've lost 80 pounds.

    1200 is hard to do long term. I have also been given a 1200 calorie goal for a two pounds per week loss but I usually eat around 1300-1400 during the week and about 2000 on the weekend. So I average 1500 per day. I'm pretty sedentary over all but I do workout daily and burn about 300 calories per day doing that so it gets me back to my 1200 average. But eating only 1200 everyday... It's possible but I just don't like being hungry. BTW....I've lost 45 pounds since April....about four and a half months.
