    LOL sucks for you.

    That's why I don't start eating until noon at least.

    Oh yeah, because that's healthy.

    Don't skip meals. Go for a nice long walk so you can eat some more. Plan your meals better.

    do you know what intermittent fasting is?

    Yeah and???

    Look at your log and decide what food choices you can make to lower it next time. And work out so you can have dinner.

    Swimming burns a TON of calories. The you can eat. I don't go much below 1500-1600 a day. :noway:

    If you're like me, you won't be very hungry in the afternoon anyway. Otherwise, try to make good choices and tomorrow will be another day.

    Looks likes you should probably aim for a 200 cal breakfast, 300 cal lunch and a 500 cal dinner, then the rest is left open for snacking (100-150 cals usually unless you have a lighter lunch/breakfast).

    Don't worry about going over a little. 1200 is a pretty low limit, so it's no fuss if you go over. :)

    Eat more fruits (as snacks)
    Incorporate veggies into your dinners/lunches
    Eat more protein enriched foods (this solves a lot of hunger)

    it's okay:) just go for a walk and drink lemon water, it helps burn fat and flush everything out.. and try not to eat anything heavy.

    LOL:smile:

    MFP is taking awfully lot of my time as I try to strech my 1200 calories over the day. I'm not obese or small or sedetary, that's just how much it is calculated. Try burn some or wait for tomorrow. My sympathy. :flowerforyou:

    With only 10 lbs to lose you shouldn't have such a low goal. Did you tell it you wanted to lose 2 lbs per week?
