Me too. I'm at 1200 and sometimes I eat back my exercise calories and sometimes I don't. It depends on what is happening in our lives and whether I'm doing the cooking or if I'm eating on the road. I have at least 65 pounds to lose, possibly up to 80, but I don't want to decide my final goal until I hit 65 and then have a physician's assessment. I'm almost half way to my 65, and let me tell you, not one pound has come off easily. Slow process, but we're heading in the right direction. Feel free to add me.0

Hi, feel free to add me. I'm on 1200 ( a little over during the weekends) and I'm looking to lose about 70 pounds.
Personally, I don't feel restricted on 1200 calories, but I found 1200-1400 to be pretty filling as long as I consciously don't fill myself up on crap. I use to just eat out of boredom....0 -
I generally eat between 1500 - 1800 but have lots of friends eating around 1200, whatever gets you to where you wanna be is ok in my book! Feel free to add.0

Why not look into BMR... or your TDEE.. instead of diving instantly into the "I HAVE TO EAT 1200!" routine?
Pretty much this! I eat 2000/day and am losing. Not feeling deprived and eating like pretty much a normal person, although much less than I was when I was putting it on. I don't get into sticky situations when I go out to eat. And I can have drinks with my friends. And dessert.
Message me if you'd like help figuring it out
I wonder how healthy 1200 calories really is. I eat normally between 1500 and 1700 and loose weight with it. It's not a sprint you know, you didn't gain in a few weeks either... Like said check your BMR how much you need to eat! Probable above 1200!
I wonder as well...
OP: Did your doctor put you on such a restrictive diet or are you going with the generic MFP 1200? Maybe you could try this calculator:

I eat 1900 and lose. (I just entered all my food for the day and since I'm going out for drinks tonight I also entered the vodka and martinis. LOL Well over 1900 but still below my TDEE, so I know I'll be just fine tomorrow.)
Best of luck.
The problem comes with what is more important. Weight in general (meaning getting rid of lean body mass, shrinking organs, bone density, dehydrating since getting rid of water weight, etc). Or trying to minimize those things and still losing weight while getting adequate nutrition, and above all else getting rid of fat. It hit me one day. I'm doing this to feel better. Not to be a frail squishy twig because I use to be lighter before. I use to be lighter before eating lots and being active. That's what made me feel good, not the skinny.
Now I eat about 100g of protein, and a lot more veg, and a lot more fat, and a treat here and there. I'm feeling a lot better, and a lot thinner, allot more fuelled, a lot stronger, and a lot less squishy (pretty sure all my weight was coming from lean mass and water before, not fat, my gut was shrinking but still squishy on the low cal thing). Food is fuel, treat it as such.0 -

Feel free to add me. I am on 1200 calories a day and it is tough. Still cannot figure out if I should eat back my exercise calories or not. I have done it so far and have lost one pound in 15 days. I have 80 to lose.0
