Starving since increasing calories.

I had a thread on here about how I hadn't been eating enough (700 calories), but the weird thing was, for the last 3 days I have been eating a 1200 calorie minimum and I have been STARVING. Any reason I am more hungry?
Edited to add, I weigh 60kg and am 5'3

Your body wants you to eat more. You were undereating and 1200 is probably still too low.2

Eat more food.

1200 is too little. That's why you're hungry.1

1200 is a good goal for you to lose a pound a week, perhaps. You can check it here:

I feel like every change you make takes some adjustment. Give it some time.
Stay strong!0
