Help please. Am I not eating enough calories?

Started using MyFitnessPaI recently & after completing my food journal I get this message, "Based on your total calories consumed for today, you are eating too few calories. Not only is it difficult to receive adequate nutrition at these calorie levels, but you could also be putting your body into starvation mode. Starvation mode lowers your metabolism and makes weight loss more difficult. We suggest increasing your calorie consumption to 1,200 calories per day minimum."
My daily allowance is 1,200, but apparently I am not eating enough calories. I am trying to eat more calories, but often I am too full to take in any more. Snacking hasn't help either. I'm always 400 calories below. What to do???
