    Hi, my name is Fran I'm 22 and trying to get back into shape after gaining 35 lbs a couple of years ago. I'm quite strict with myself when it comes to eating but I have to allow treats or I will just throw in the towel. I vary eating 1,200 or less. I find eating 1,200 is to much for me sometimes. Please add me as a friend always looking for support and to help others.

    Not new to MFP - but back on 1200 cals. I lost 56lbs in 2.5 months, around 18 months ago and maintained it right up until October last year (I did it on a miserable total food replacement diet). In October 12, I quit smoking - and - good news bad news. Have conquered the disgusting habit, but left myself with a sad weight gain of around 54lbs - ie - back to square one. I am "okay" though, was a bit down last week. I have decided this time, I cannot face Total Food Replacement again, and instead, am opting for the slower steadier approach on 1200 cals. On a positive note, I find exercising now as a non smoker, is so much easier. I am no longer breathless, and five days in, am starting to feel my body loosening up a bit and feeling fitter. I will weigh myself on Friday, but do know that I have already lost a few lbs - can feel it. I have, in all honesty, being eating (oink oink) at every opportunity and quitting smoking has been a bit of an excuse to pig out. Faced reality last week (ironically the last day I wore a nicotine patch) and am now on the GET FIT FOR LIFE plan - looking forward to joining you all on the 1200 journey!

    Hi All,

    after being horribly ill last year I packed on over 30 pounds boo, now I am set to lose that plus more, whilst getting fit and toned :) It is actually nice having a challenge of counting calories and being inventive, and become more knowledgeable with what is actually in food :)

    I am trying to kick sugar and try the healthy eating thing so feel free to add :)

    Hello! I was doing 1000 calories and working out. I lost almost 40 of the 70 I need to lose THEN the holidays hit, I got injured and I have been struggling since. I'm starting today back to 1000-1200 calories. I try to eat as clean as I can and 3 meals, 2 snacks with a protein focus. I am frustrated by my inability to control my food and the constant battle with it! I need a weight loss buddy, a gym buddy, and maybe my jaw wired shut paired with an electric shock :)

    I will join the 1200 group...it has taken two weeks to adjust but I finally don't feel hungry. Coconut milk helped me get over dairy and frozen berries over sweet tooth. I walk daily but still have to add strength training. Hard to do while sitting at my desk all day.
