1200 calorie girls

Just recently yes!

1200 Everday! I am always over from sugar, but its usually good sugar like from a banana or something. I plan on eating a 1200 diet until I reach my goal and then I will give myself some wiggle room!

I do 1200 calories, and then have another 400 calorie meal every day.

I'm doing 1200 per day too but make sure to net some of those exercise calories. I think you're supposed to net 1200. I work out after lunch, which usually wipes out anything I've eaten that day, so I always have plenty of calories to have a decent dinner. So much that I can't usually use them up. My problem is that I keep going slightly over my allowable carbs and fat. I have to try to get that part down some. Otherwise, it seems to be working for me. Good luck to all of you out there!!!

I'm doing the 1200 calorie days. I started my "lifestyle improvement" plan about a month ago. It was tough staying under the marker for about the 1st 2 weeks. Of course the 'work out' days are easier. It took some research and longer trips to the grocer before I found things that were bigger portions with the right amount calories/carbs/protein/whatever. I started the couch-to-5k thing too. Obviously more walking is being done here than running, but I'm sticking with it. Good news to report: I've lost 2 inches off hips and 1 off the waist.

I'm trying for 1450, but some days only make it into the 1200s. On those days it's usually because I've eaten things like salmon, salad with little dressing, grilled shrimp, pan cooked &seasoned chicken breast, vegetables, etc. which tend to be on the low calorie side. Easiest way to get full on such a low calorie diet is to ditch the empty carbs. I avoid breads and chips, but still use wild rice cups in no more than one meal. I also don't drink soda or coffee, and don't typically sweeten the tea I drink. Protein is your friend! Eat more of it, especially if you are trying to strengthen your muscles. Foods with fiber will also help keep you full longer

Hello Everyone! I'm a 1200 calorie girl too... I've lost 7 pounds in 3 weeks. Now I'm incorporating more excercise. Please add me as a friend!! I could use the support and motivation!

ooooh, didn't take long for some arrogant person to tell us we are doing it wrong. for anyone who has been on this site for more than a minute we know you don't agree with what we are doing, no need to keep shoving it down our throat. quit it. this thread just asked if there are other 1200 calorie girls. it did NOT ask for people to tell anyone that they are doing it wrong.

Oh don't worry he's not just trolling 1200 threads. He's annoying the rest of us on other threads too.

I know this is "for ladies" but I thought I would give you all some tips. I also know that there are a lot of people that say the "shake diets" are not all they are cracked up to be since you cannot afford to sustain it for the rest of your life. This is true. The fact is, though, the shakes teach you portion control, as well as, fill you up for a significant amount of time. I use the GNC Lean Shake, for breakfast, then workout and eat a healthy lunch, and then use a GNC Lean Shake for supper. For suppliments, in between, I use a protien bar, or a snack such as vegetables, that provide nutrients. Most of the time, the shake carries me through until my next meal, though.

Look into eating a lot of chicken and lean meat. The more protien you can consume, the better you will be. You are all correct, though, keeping the calorie count low is good, but not too low. I have been able to keep myself under 1500 pretty much all the time, and under 1000 some days, without feeling hungry or starved.
