    poor 1200 calorie peoples:(((
    You'd be quite surprised at how much one can eat and how satisfying it can be on 1,200 calories.

    If you don't need or want to eat 1,200 calories, then don't. I will never get why so many people on this site are so concerned with what others are doing when those people are not asking for your concern or advice.

    ... i would have to admit to myself that there are 1200 calories in each of these:

    12 tbsp of peanut butter
    12 tbsp of mayonnaise
    17 eggs
    6 dilly bars
    3/4 delissio pizza
    10 cups of 2% milk
    10kg of cucumber
    240g of toblerone

    just boggles my mind sometimes....

    Good job you aren't then, 'cos you wouldn't be eating healthy, most of those are junk.

    None of those are junk.

    True...I've done the 1200 calorie/day...it ain't easy.

    BAHAHAHHAHA you are joking yes? Nobody in their right mind would eat only those foods if they have any brains and are on 1200 calories per day, not unless they want a rumbling tummy. LOL you are funny :laugh:

    Fully agree with every aspect of your post there :flowerforyou:

    If I was on a 1200 calorie diet I wouldn't have been able to have dinner, let alone anything aside from dinner.

    That aside I don't imagine people eating 1200 calories would waste it on Mayo.

    Thank goodness for that, somebody gets the gist! :laugh: :flowerforyou:

    lol the thread took on a life of its own...

    there was no real point to it, i just find myself looking at some food items, thinking i could fit x many of that into my daily calories....
    on the other hand, i look at a dilly bar (this is my current example because my neighbor just gave me 2 boxes of them) and it equals roughly 20-30 minutes of running. can't outrun too many of them :tongue:

    Yep, and there are 31 Weight Watchers points in an entire box of Ho-Ho's. And yep, a few years ago when I was on WW and hubby was out of town, I ate all of my 31 daily points by eating Ho-Ho's all day. Last year after we got through my mom's funeral, I spent 3 days on the couch eating ice cream and watching bad television.

    Sometimes you just have to. :smile:

    240g of Toblerone, eh? I'll have to remember that.

    Man I love Dilly Bars. It is a 30 minute drive to the nearest DQ, and they are always closed when I happen to be nearby, so I haven't had one in years.

    Anyway, I knew I had to jump back on the MFP wagon when last week some evil sorceress brought a box A WHOLE BOX of Rice Crispy Treats to my house and said, "I don't like these, you can have them."

    I ate the whole box THE WHOLE BOX while watching a season of Downton Abbey.

    Alone. In the dark.

    Not cool, self. Not cool.
