    Just some advice, do not start yourself out to low in calories as you want to make a lifestyle change and if you deprive your body too much your goals for 2200 every day for years is unrealistic. So what you can do is get your BMW and find out approx how much your consuming in calories already, then take that number and x it by 30% and that should be your new calorie intake

    Yep, I'm 1200 cals a day too. Almost everything we eat is homemade so feel free to add me, maybe there will be some inspiration in my diary (open to friends). I just discovered the recipe builder and it makes my dinner entries soooo much easier!! :) Looking forward to seeing what everyone else enjoys to eat too.
