Starving all the time

So there's a lot of suggestions pulling you in a couple dozen directions but I'll add just one more..since you asked. I'm on 1200 cals a day as well.

Eat smaller meals spaced out through the day, but make sure those are filled with higher amounts of protein and fiber, that's \
what's going to keep you full

Make sure you're getting plenty of water...try to drink at least 2 glasses before a meal, sometimes when we think we're hungry it's more dehydration than actual hunger

It's been said - eat more nuts - they're good for you and they keep you full (back to that protein suggestion)

Cut out refined sugars - the more sugar you eat the more you crave...this is true especially with crap like high fructose corn syrup...and even replacement sugars (don't think products that contain aspartame and the likes are a healthy alternative) - This doesn't mean you should cut out fruits and natural sugars, but don't go crazy either.

If you try this and you're still hungry maybe you have a higher daily caloric need...be honest about your activity level, and make sure you eat back at least some of your exercise cals.
