in Introduce Yourself
A large portion of my friends seem to be on your run-of-the-mill 1200 calorie diet, with a few exceptions.

I'm a 23-year-old female on my last 15 lbs, losing slowly but surely. I'm 5'5" and am now 148.8 lbs. I eat 1500 calories per day.

I'd love to find friends that eat as much or more than I do and are losing weight!

    I'm five foot four and a half, eat around 1700 cals per day, sometimes more, do a lot of farm work, gardening, landscaping, hay hauling, I've lost over 15 lbs. and have about that much or less to go ( depending on looks not weight), and I eat whatever I want to within reason. I'm 64 with thyroid issues, but I'm still losing weight. Diary is open to public.

    Feel free to add me!! We're very similar, I am currently at 145, 5'5 and at 1500 calories a day! My goal is also 20 pounds and I hope to lose it within 3-6 months.

    Hey, im on my last 6lbs.
    Working out of deficit eating to get to a good maintenance. Currently on a deficit still at 1500cals a day and eat back *mostly* all my exercise calories.

    Always welcome new friends, especially those who have a similar approach to food as me :D

    I wish my co-workers ate 1200. I am a teacher so I get to see what they eat day in and day out. Here is a list of the 5 women I eat with.

    1. Militray diet 3 days a week (day 3 is about 870 calories)
    2. Half a sandwich and a piece of fruit
    3. Cottage cheese and a banana
    4. Some weird smelly green smoothie
    5. 5 bites of whatever she brought from home

    I am 5'2", I am 1550 calories, I love food, I have l learned to portion my food out so I get to enjoy more of it through out the day! Feel free to add me, I have 23 lbs to go till I hit my goal weight. I started back in February and have lost 19 lbs so far just by really watching my portion sizes, more veggies and fruit and trying to stay away from most of those bad foods. I am only human and have to have my chocolate every once in a while.

    I'm at about 2200 a day most days (1600 on days when I don't have an Insanity workout). It varies a little depending on the intensity of the workout, but only by about 100 calories either way.

    I eat 1700-2000 cals depending on my workouts. If I dont workout, I am around 1500. But I should say that I dont eat clean. I eat what I want. Some days I eat fast food because of the convenience and others I eat sort of healthy at home.

    Feel free to add me.

    I'm 5 ft 11 and eat around the 1600 cals a day mark. I believe in eating back as many of your burnt exercise cals as you can stomach!!

    I'm pretty active - walking every day on top of regularly working out, running etc.

    I'm really interested in getting people who are going for a LIFESTYLE change not a 'crash diet' onto my friends list. If this is you then hit me up :)

    I do my best to comment on lots of people's statuses and activities...I love getting to know my friends on here. :)
