According to the BMR calculator (see the Apps section of this site) your BMR is 1440 calories. This is what your body would need to just survive (in a coma). This is therefore a minimum that you should aim for to keep your body operating properly. You might experience that your weight loss slows down from on a 1200 calorie diet but it is a healthier way of losing!

not enough. you should be eating AT LEAST 1500 calories a day with this height and weight

I am utterly sedentary except for

3 x a week spending 40 minutes lifting heavy weights and 30 mins light cardio on 2 x a week.

My TDEE is around 2000 cals and I eat 1500 cals daily and I am losing 1 lb a week.
