Hello,
I am a father of 3 and stress has me going up and down in weight. Nothing crazy but 15 pounds of fat makes a huge difference in how I feel. I am big into lifting weights when I don't mess my back up. I need to get back down 15 pounds but starving myself at 1200 calories is misserable. I hope to find out here how to fix my diet so I am not starving but still loosing the fat. It's a hard mental thing to get over. Also living in South Dakota makes it very hard to get out side during the winter which causes the winter blues.

Welcome! Glad you're here. You will find a very supportive community. Hopefully some other members here will comment (particularly the guys), but 1200 calories seems pretty low. You can definitely do this without starving yourself. If you post on some of the nutrition boards you should be able to get some good advice - and good nutrition helps with those winter blues, too! Feel free to add me!
