1200 cal meal plans

Hey MFP lovelies. Has anyone got any ideas for 1200 daily meal plans? Or 500 cal meal ideas? I am struggling to be honest. Thank you sooooo much

    I'm back at it, to correct some maintenance creep and MFP put me at 1,200 calories. I've bumped it up to 1,300 because I'm going to be adding in walking a few times a week and don't want to do exercise calories separately. I have my first day logged, and I've come in under 1,200 calories oiy. Feel free to check my diary, but again it's only one day so far lol :)

    Take a look at my diary. Ignore the past 2 days because of the holidays.

    My diary is open and I think my recipes as well. I eat multiple small meals a day, so most are around 200 calories give or take.

    My diary is open and I try to stick to 1200-1300 calories per day.

    The last two days were unusually light for me, so ignore them :)

    You can look at my food diary today for breakfast, 508 calories, or dinner, 503 calories. My daily plan is for 1348 calories so the way I'd get to 1200 would be to subtract any of the little bits necessary to find 145. I'm sure there are other ways to skin this cat.

    I eat more like 1300-1400, but you can look at my diary. I eat 3 meals, plus a couple snacks. However, I lump my snacks all together at the bottom even though I don't eat them together.
