Any normal people here lol?

Anyaaaa11

I'm seeing a lot of "friends"are going low calorie to where it's
Completely unsustainable! Im talking 1000 and less! I find that ridiculous to stick to.
Anyway, I'm looking for normal healthy citizens that would be interested
In exchanging motivation.(: I need some friends that know what they're doing!
Not a bunch of people who expect to be healthy living off of 300-1000cals a day!
Not trying to offend anyone I just think the low cal epidemic is setting up people to fail

I agree with you. That kind of calorie deficit is a little bit too far on the extreme end.

"Normal" isn't one of the words I'd use to describe myself, but I eat around 2000 a day.

I'm 5' 2", net around 1500, and I eat my exercise calories. I'm happily losing my last ten pounds slowly. I never go hungry, I never feel deprived, and I know I'll actually be able to transition into maintenance without gaining back all I lost and more.

You can add me! I don't follow the broscience.

I eat carbs.
I eat after 6pm.
I don't do cardio everyday.

i would consider myself normal: 2000 a day.....but I am struggling to meet that goal. not that i am not eating but finding it hard to get to that count.

Feel free to add me - I am in this for the rest of my life and am not into torturing myself to drop a bunch of water weight and muscle - MFP has me at about 1500 calories, but I often go a little over. I listen to my body and to what it needs. And I make good choices and work out whenever I can.

So glad to see that there are actually people on here that care about their health!
I'm also eating 1600 cals ! I couldn't imagine eating anything lower than 1300 lol
Makes me feel like crap.

OK, I need to update my pic, but I eat somewhere between 1800 and 2200 a day. Without exercise, and I have lost 16.6 lbs! I am losing between .5 and 1 lb a week. I am happy with that. It took me a little more than 48 years to get lie this, i figure it will be a while before I get down to my goal.

Please feel free to add me too! i think I am normal, ( in relation to weight loss, maybe not other topics. LOL)

Kincar

I'm normal. At least when it comes to calories intake. I eat between 1700 and 1800 calories a day, and I eat most of my exercise calories. I love working out way too much to starve myself. Feel free to add me.

mamagooskie

I'm not exactly "normal" (I can be a bit crazy and kooky) but I do love to eat, and never met a calorie I didn't like or want to consume !!

I don't support the whole I ate 900 calories every day this week and burned 2000 cal each day and lost nothing WHY?? folks!!
I think it's stupid and unhealthy for sure.

gleechick609

I eat carbs. I eat from the time I wake up until the time I go to sleep. I eat between 1500-2000 calories or more.

Read my profile. Send me a request if interested.

I see questions like this all the time. It's one thing to ask what your doing wrong if your eating enough an exercising
But it's just ridiculous to eat such a low amount and then wonder why they feel like crap and aren't losing.
Personally I think it's common sense. Shock like that is not good for the body nor healthy.

Trophyyf

I'm super normal then because I'm at 1700 plus cals a day. Who eats 300 cals a day? yikes!! I would be in the newspaper front page Lady Loses Her Mind!!! Add me if ya like :happy:

echandle12

feel free to add me, I eat my exercise calories, I like food and like to eat.

CinJay

Yep, pretty much what everyone's said on here... I'm "normal" enough (hehe), feel free to add me!

whitneyas

I agree! People go a little crazy with the whole "I only ate 800 calories today, I am so awesome." My "target" given to me to attain my goals was 1527... I think I am averaging about 1700... people go to extremes

susanb573

I will have the occassional day where I have under 1200 but very rarely. I like food. I like to eat. And I don't like the way I feel when I don't get enough calories.
