I'm doing the 17 day diet and my calories are way under than what MFP suggested. I eat enough food. I mainly try to eat a lot of veggies and protein to prevent me from getting hungry.. Has anyone else come across this?

    Its ok it will start to even out when I started MFP suggested 1820 but with the 17 day diet i was averaging about 1000-1300 calories and on the higher end only if I absolutely pushed myself, you can customize your calorie goal if its still showing a huge difference

    I am the same way. Sometimes I find that I only get 800-1000 calories in a day and I feel like I'm eating all day. Vegetables just aren't very many calories. But I feel as though I'm getting plenty of nutrients, and know that after 17 days, I get to eat a bit more.
    I hope that it is okay to be so low on the calories. I think it is as long as we are eating everything we are supposed to.
    Good luck.
