    Hello! My name's Rebekah! 23 years old, mommy to 2 little boys (ages 2.5 and 6 months). I am new to the community, so would love to add any like-minded ladies with similar weight loss goals. My goal net daily caloric intake is 1200, but I am still breast feeding my 6 month old, so I try to eat about 1500-1600 to make sure I produce enough milk for my little fella! :) So far, I have lost 23 lb eating this way and working out 5-6x/week! Getting there! :D

    Hello, I'm 1200 Cal Gal and slow and steady is it. I've lost 2 pounds so far and I have weigh in at the gym this weekend and I'm a bit nervous and excited to see the results.

    Bit of both really. 1200 calories is not that much so I tend to use half of my exercise earned calories on food & the rest as a deficit to hopefully help me shed my last 10 pounds

    Hi! Feel free to add me. I'm pretty new here. I'm 34, trying to lose a total of 30lbs with a 1200 calorie diet and exercise. (That's a first for me!) I've been at it since mid-Jan & I'm down 9lbs so far & feeling

    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 :)
