I weigh 113 pounds I wanna losr about 8ish pounds
I eat 1200 calories a day but I want to know do I have to eat completely healthy to lose weight? Or am I allowed thr odd bar of chocolate here and there aslong as I dont eat over my calorie limit? also is it ok to have 1 treat day a week?or will that hinder my weight loss because my friend told me you shouldn't have treat days until you reach your goal but that seems really miserable.... also does anyone have any tipsz on how to keep your social life going? My friend's always ask me out to eat ... or say if you go to see a movie? My boyfriend always asks me over to his place to eat junk and watch movies
and I cant even go out on the weekends for a drink

You can eat whatever you want, just fit it into your calorie goal.0

I lost my weight eating around 1300 - 1400 cals
I did not deprive myself of anything...chocolate etc
As long as it was in my calorie allowance I ate as I wanted. I have now been maintaining my weight for 6 months on the same rules
Good luck to you and don'tdeprive yourself0 -
Start how you mean to go on. If you are going to eat treats when you reach your goal you may as well learn how to fit them into your day now.
I eat treats every day. Still losing weight.0 -
How tall are you and how often do you workout? Because for a 19 year old girl, you generally need more calories than 1200. Heck, if you exercise, i wouldn't be surprised if you needed 1800+ calories a day to lose.
But why do I have a feeling you are tall0
