    1200 calories is low in my eyes, If I could offer any advice to a fellow brit it would be to defo eat any calories back burnt through exercise. I think you will find what the right balance is for you through trial and error, as everybody is different, good luck with your goals tho!

    Wow thank you for all the responses!

    I just want to clarify that I'm OK with it being 1200 I have just read on a few other forums that more is better... within reason of course!!

    I'm going to still with 1200 for 4 weeks and include a bit more exercise (I'm such a lazy bones!!) and see what happens.

    I think I'm going to do the whole 'before and after' pics too so watch this space :D

    P.S feel free to add me :D

    Calculate your BMR, then you'll know what you need exactly to get to where you want to be, and maintain it.
