I'm already on 1,200 calories a day.. I plan on eating that still but just reducing my carbs bc I always go over. Cutting down on bread and pasta has to help with the weight loss process? When I replace them with healthier options.
Eating 1200 calories that includes bread and pasta and eating 1200 calories of lean meats makes no difference for weight loss. Carbs do not make you gain weight, unless the put you over in your calories.
As I mentioned above, you are in the self-regulating start of your weight loss efforts. Wait until you have been doing this for six weeks. Look back and see what you weekly loss average is. Chances are really good it will be right where you should be. If you have lost less than expected, see what you might need to do. If you have lost more than expected, you might want to consider eating back a few more exercise calories.0
