    what do you mean about 1200 calorie people?:indifferent:
    Not very delicious. :(

    Oh I totally disagree ~ I mean, fine by me if you don't want to add 1200 calorie friends, but it's not true that equals "not very delicious". Not by a long shot. I truly only eat tasty and satisfying foods.

    I think it depends on how much you weigh to begin with ive 2 stone to lose and that is what mfp suggests!

    I gots about 20 lbs of flab to shift, there is no way on earth I would even try and only eat 1200 cals. I eat between 1800 and 3000 cals per day. I am not big and not small, around the 160 lbs mark...my BMR is 1538, so hitting that is a bare minimum for me.

    Why no 1200 calorie folks? With thyroid issues I tend to HAVE to eat a bit lower.

    *sigh* I want to delete this thread because the Attack of the 1200 calorie folks has come out. That is NOT what this thread was about.

    And that's not what I meant by not very delicious.

    And that's fine. I'm not personally criticizing anyone's choice to eat that much. I just don't want that on my feed unless it's recommended by a doctor or whatever. My personal choice.

    Well just to be clear I'm certainly not any part of a 'attack of the 1200 calorie folk' LOL. I'm totally supportive of those who can and do eat more. Just replied my POV to your comment about "not very delicious :(". Now you've got me sincerely curious what you DID mean ;)

    That makes sense. Yes, my doctor recommended it. :/

    No 1200 calorie people??
    That sure sounds like a challenge to me :-) ! Well, I'm a "1200 calorie person", and I am on your feed. I am 46, I have thyroid issues, high cholestoral, high blood pressure and a family history of diabetes, heart disease and stroke. My doctor wants me to get rid of 30 pounds- for my health. Calorie control is essential for maintaining your health. Still disagree? Read it again. BTW, it's best to remember food should be consumed for fuel. And this should really annoy you. I work out at least an hour a day, since that's what you need after you hit 45.

    I thought she was saying something about people made up of 1200 calories. You know, like candy. Not delicious at 1200 calories!

    I'm weird. LOL.

    Your intent to annoy me failed. :) I never said eat your body weight in calories. Just eat what your body needs per day. For most people, it's way above 1200 calories. Now you're medically recommended to do that, and I cannot comment on what that's like. I wish you the best of luck improving your health!

    Well I for one totally understood your original post and your personal reasons for not wanting to add low-cal friends. I'm not sure why folks are getting their panties in a bunch over it. If (for whatever reason) you said you didn't want blonde friends from New Zealand because they are a trigger for you I wouldn't try and convince you that you're missing out. Your friends list, your business who you add.

    Hope you get a good selection of folks to call you out and kick your butt! All the best on your journey.

    PS. Not sending a request cos I'm one of "them". :wink:
