I don't know, but I am also sick with similar symptoms, and can't bring myself to eat anything much. I think I am on about 900 for the day.

Not currently sick but had the same thing about a month ago. I can barely eat anything when I am this sick and can only manage about 800-900 calories a day for the 3 days I was sick. Once I was better I ate everything in site bc I finally had a sense of taste and an appetite again. Sucks being sick!

I was recently ill and had surgery. I ate my maintenance when sedentary (1700 or there abouts) and gained 0.5lb which then came off in a couple of days and now I'm at my lowest weight in about 2 years.

1200 is always too low, imo.
