    A variation on what the above person is requesting, and feel free to add me (as I am shooting for 1300-1500 cal.)

    Originally I figured I would just log my food in myfitnesspal.com because they say you don't lose without keeping a diary. But I am thinking it might be helpful to interact more and have some accountability.

    I am currently about 400 (402 with clothes after last doctor visit), hit a high 414 this year. Was about 330 in 2000 with 350 kind of being the previous peak. Eventually crashed through that in the past three years, and getting over 400 has been scary. Had a pulmonary embolism last year. I began 2011 at 398, dropped to 378, then hit 361 after the hospital in May, only to rise the rest of the year.

    It's always been difficult for me to "diet", so my method includes taking food I enjoy eating and modifying it enough where it's filling, but not too fattening. Also, pretty much eating the same thing all the time (because I like the same stuff, it simplifies record keeping, and I am also trying to manage costs).

    I am looking to stay between 1300 on the low end, and 2000 on the high end. My RMR (resting metabolic rate) is 2700 or so. I shoot for 1300, kind of knowing I will come in a bit higher. Ideally I want to be hitting about 1500 a day.

    So anyone who wants to add me, feel free. I think I have it set so my diary should appear. My diary is pretty erratic over the past year, so I am thinking that with people looking at what I am eating, it will be an extra set of judgmental (hopefully) and encouraging eyeballs.

    I plan to post a picture of my chunky self soon.

    (Every two weeks or so, their might be a Thursday "chinese food" entry, using PF Chang values to substitute for food values at my local joint, but those days should come under 2000 as well).

    My goal is to eat about 1200 calories a day. My diary will go higher to about 1400-1600 if I exercise enough that day. I try to exercise 6 out of 7 days out of the week... usually hoping to burn around 600 calories. I'm pretty meticulous about adding items to my diary and will make notes from time to time especially if I've gone a bit over in calories. I try to stay consistent, but don't fault me on any days that I might "fall off the wagon".. haha And yes, I don't hide my bad days. I put it all out there! :) Also, I am always interested in skinny ideas/recipes.. and like to use skinnytaste.com from time to time etc for meal ideas. Feel free to add me if my diary interests you.. I'm always looking for new friends! :)

    You can add me! I am at 1200 a day....this is just my third day with mfp so I am still trying to figure it all out. My first day diary entry I was solely just counting the calories. Second day I realized I need to also factor in the carbs, fat and protein (thought it was too easy! Lol)..... Slowly figuring it out, my diary is open, not the greatest, I need to hit up the grocery store tonight and bring in more options for myself for food! I'll send you a friend request!

    I'm 5'2 with a 1200 calorie goal. I workout most days. Recently plateaued for over a month and this week I began trying to make sure I eat about 1600 and the scale has started moving down again. Any other 1200ers please add me as a friend to share diaries. I'll take all the motivation I can get. Also i started a healthy cooking blog with calorie breakdowns to keep me motivated www.petitehealth.com

    I am within that calorie range, not sure if my diary is open. I'll have to look and open it. (I've just started with mfp)
    Although, i've only been here a week and some of the things I have posted is ingredients to make my meals so i can find what the calorie content in them is.

    i would love to share recipes that are tasty (in my opinion) and low calorie; feel free to friend me as well and we can swap.
