Believe it or not, I'm eating about 1200 calories a day. It definitely takes some creative eating. Look forward to speaking to you.

I heard that after you eat more than what your body is used to you gain weight right? Well im thinking once i hit 100 lbs ill increase it to proabably 1400
And I dont mind if I gain another 10 pounds after and I'll proabably not eat anymore than 1400 on a daily basis,^-^
I do work out too

You may gain water weight, which is linked to your body storing more glycogen. This is generally what people mean when they say 'I went from eating 1200 to 1500 calories and now I'm gaining weight!!!!'. You won't gain fat on that increase.

Hi everyone! I'm on day 3 of my adventure on getting healthier and losing weight , and my goal is 1300 calories a day. Does anyone have any great ideas or advice on foods to eat, any interesting recipes? I'm a hug fan of salads, and veggies so if anyone has any advice/tips I would appreciate it! Thanks!

i'm on a 1200 - 1400 calorie diet and i'm seeing a nutritionist She is helping me make sure that i'm eating all the right things. Due to health issues and very limited mobility my body does not require as many calories and I've been struggling to lose weight at these calorie levels, i have found by experiment that if i stay closer to the 1200 then the 1400 i can lose weight but it's been a struggle and takes me a long time to lose weight. I've been counting calories since the middle of January and as of today i have lost 23 lbs. Most people my size can lose 5 lbs or more in a week but that is not how my body works.

I find it hard to get in 1200 calories some days but that is because i used to drink most my calories and i'm weening myself from drinking soda but once in awhile i treat myself to a diet pepsi now instead of a regular pepsi. I'm also drinking my tea with sweetener instead of sugar.
