    The short answer? Sometimes 1200 is enough and sometimes it's not. I'm short so I get that sometimes more calories isn't necessary but depending on your activity level 1200 really might not be enough.

    So today was a "maintenance day" rather than a weight loss day. Sometimes you just need a break. You can go back to the 1200 diet tomorrow.

    I find when I have a 'hungry' day...like I eat normal and half hr later I'm starving, it usually is a weightloss day!
