I eat 1,200-1,300 when I don't exercise. I'm eating 1,300 to 1,600 when I do. Mine is open feel free to look but I'm working into my 2nd week or Insanity on top of 1/2 marathon training so it's likely mine will go up as my body needs it.

I think mine is open, I only eat 900/day except for Mondays. . I did screw up and eat a whole pizza Tuesday on accident.

Feel free to add me Mine is open to friends. I am on 1200 cals a day, I eat a good bit of fruit and veggies and I am also cautious with my sodium intake. Saturday is my day to relax a bit and eat things I wouldn't during the week. SO I usually go over that day... I am also on day 6 of Jillian's 30 day shred. I've had a steady loss of 2+ every week, having started 3 weeks ago. I love to see other dairies...give me ideas for other foods!

My goal is set to 1,270. I've just been getting back into the swing of things, so I tend to go a little over, but I've lost 5 pounds in the last week, so going a little over obviously hasn't done me any harm.

Feel free to check mine out. I keep it around 1200 but I have adjusted my carbs/fat/protein to 40%/30%/30%. I have PCOS & this works best for me.

Best of luck

Mine is 1200 and open. As for recipes, you have to try this chicken parmasian, it is AMAZING, quick, easy and fairly low cal. It is in my log for todays lunch and also yesterdays dinner. Check it out! And anyone that wants to add me as a friend go ahead!

You can check out mine. I don't always make the best choices but I usually stay with in my limit. I also keep myself motivated to exercise by the extra calories I know I am going to earn.

Mine is open. It's not the greatest. I wasn't feeling well for about 2 weeks.

ladyinredflush

I'm 1200.

mrslynch

Mine is open. . I've only been at this for two weeks, but so far so good. Most days my biggest problem is getting to the end of the day and having calories left over and searching for something to eat. The other issue is the macros... Mine never match up. I'm always over in protein and almost always under in fat and carbs. Tips?

ShannonECTD

My diary is open but i'm usually 1200-1300 NET which means i usually eat 1700+. I don't eat back exercise calories i already have them figured out for my activity levels and goals (1-1.5lb loss per week)

I have trouble many days with staying at 1200 calories. Open diaries please!! Any quick and easy or slow cooker low calorie recipes would help.

chicken, peppers, tin of tomatoes, curry receipe mix (to your taste) Potatoes (optional), mix the curry of choice with the tin of tomatoes with the rest of the above throw it in the slow cooker for a few hours BOOM! I dont know where your from but here in the uk there is Schwartz they do packets of recipe mix for slow cookers and their yummy!

You are welcome to look at mine if you like. I don't know what it's set at though...I usually have a hard time reaching 1200 calories here lately though because I'm eating way more protein...lots of my friends on my list have been asking me why I'm eating so low...but I can't help it! The protein just fills me up! Trying to eat more...you are welcome to look at mine if you like...I just started back to logging so there isn't much to see...but you're welcome to check it out!

Yeah...I'm usually over in protein, fat and sodium... I've got to cut out the sodium! ...but I'm addicted to protein...lol I have a hard time eating 1200 calories as well...I'm just so full! yep...I've caught myself searching for something to eat too just so my fitness pal friends won't get on to me! Nut butters are good for this purpose...they raise the calories too

Feel free to add me - mine is open and I'm at 1400 - just bumped it up recently from 1200.

Mine is open 1200 cals but often eat more as I excercise most days. I've also recently amended the diary to log 4 smaller meals plus snacks so going back not all of the foods are in the right category.

lyndalpn

Mine too. I aim for 1200, sometimes over and sometimes under, and aim to eat healthy. Im also diabetic which limits some things that I cant eat. But if I can help, its all there

Mine is open...you can add me

Check out my diary! I tried to eat more calories, but the weight wasn't coming off. Once I started eating between 1200-1300, the weight is falling off! My advice is to eat a bunch of little things all day long. I'm constantly eating (as in a yogurt at 8am, my actual breakfast at 10, 1/2 of my lunch at 12, the other half at 2, snack at 4, dinner at 6) It works for me!

Mine is open but my logging is sporadic, just bumping for ideas, thanks!

Mine is open to friends, feel free to add me. Today I had way more sugar than I usually do (some kind of time of month related craving) but I've been on here for 5 weeks so there are quite a few solid days worth of food on there.

Average meals: two eggs scrambled with 7g grated cheese 160 cal
one egg with a dinner roll 150cal
zucchini, broccoli, yellow squash, carrots, chicken (or steak or shrimp), stir fried with teriyaki sauce 140-300 cal (depending on choice of protein and quantitiy of protein)
Chicken, a vegetable side, half a cup of brown rice 240 cal
A slice of cheese pizza 250 cal
Mixed vegetables (usually broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, zucchini) with a modified cheese sauce 250 cal
Tuna salad (Tuna, small amount of mayo, celery, apples, relish) 200 cal
Tuna, a vegetable side 200 cal
Tilapia (with sauce), a vegetable side, a dinner roll 200 cal
Salmon, vegetable side, half cup brown rice 240 cal
Baked Sweet potato (depending on size 130-260 cal), olive oil, salt, rosemary 240-360 cal (or baked red potato)
Average Snacks: Piece of fruit (any) including: apple, banana, mango, cup of berries (strawberries, blueberries, etc...) ~80 cal
Raw vegetables including carrots, broccoli, celery, etc... ~50 cal
small ice cream (or gelato, my new fav) 110-190 cal
Protein shake 20g protein 93 cal
Slice of cheese ~50 cal
etc...

I usually eat 3-4 small meals and a couple snacks.

I find that the more fruits and veggies I eat, the more bulk I can get so I'm full all day and tend to come in under my calorie allowance (I'll add an extra snack or protein shake to bump it up).

Also, one serving of oatmeal with some fruit 150+ calories
Yogurt with fruit and granola 175 calories


Just a few ideas
