1100 calorie diet!!!

srpm

I sit at a desk all day and on days I don't work out I can still eat well over 1,100 (or 1,200 thx MFP) calories and still lose some weight, just not all in one day and if I lose it at a slower pace I'll feel better during the process and am less likely to give up. When I was stupidly trying to stick to 1200 calories/day even with eating back my exercise calories I would get burnt out and give up after about a week or completely binge on weekends and undo any progress I had made during the week.

:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: Congrats. I don't. I need to maintain around 1,200 to 1,400 calories to lose weight. I must be doing it wrong.

IMO 1,400 is well over 1,100, as in my breakfast, or a snack (or two depending on the day) or in the case of the OP's daughter any given meal. @ 1,450ish per day net I still lose and it is much more realistic for me than when I was trying to eat under 1,200. I still have under 1,200 days but I also have some that are over 1,600 so it all evens out.
