Its soo hard to eat the right amount of calories, I try to eat 1200 calories a day but I just cant eat that much. It literally makes me sick from soo much food.

    Open your diary so people can help properly. I'm going to assume you are eating very low fat so add some healthy fats like nuts and seeds, avocado and olive oil to your diet. Easy to get to 1200 if you are eating a properly balanced diet.

    If you only have one day logged how do you know you are eating 1200 cals?

    To open go to food-> settings-> Diary Sharing: public

    are you weighing your food accurately? Down to the gram? Willing to bet that you're already eating more than 1200..
