1200 Calories feels very low...

BrendaLee

If you only have 9 pounds to lose, you're going to need to take it slow. If you don't feel satisfied with the amount you're eating, try eating a hundred or two hundred calories below your maintenance amount- or, alternatively, eat at your maintenance amount, and add in some extra cardio. It's pretty much guaranteed your body is going to hold onto that 9 pounds pretty hard.

5'9, 139...what I wouldn't give to have those stats!
