Im in that range.... I am within 6 pounds of my current goal but would love to be a support to you. I keep within the calorie range by making sure I'm getting enough protein. Protein in women is really important, keeps you full longer-- thus taking in less calories. First off-- do you drink enough water? feel free to add me as a friend on here--

Mfp puts me at 1340 daily. Feel free to add me I have an open diary. I'm not promising to have the cleanest eating plan but I try to stay at my calories and am making better choices with my food for the most part. It's all moderation for me! Oh and I have about 15 lbs to lose.0

My target is 1500 per day. I am a long term logger; almost 800 day streak. Feel free to friend me and check out my diary. I am a 'real' food eater and wine drinker.0

I usually eat 1300-1400 calories/day and my most successful method has been shaving off calories from meals. Instead of eating a sandwich with bread, I use a sandwich thin, which saves about 100 calories. I also add less lunch meat and more veggies. I eat an egg almost every morning, but I don't put in cheese anymore (I fill it with green peppers and onions instead). A also eat a ton of baby carrots with lunch because they're low in calories and take forever to eat.
Most people will say that you should snack less, but I love snacks and think they're important, as long as you don't go too crazy. Basically I just eat more veggies and drink a ton of water.0 -
I try to keep it around there, feel free to add me. Some days I am too busy to eat a lot so that helps me keep my calories down. I try to walk or run every day. Sometimes all it takes to shave down your calories is a busy day, I know when I'm bored and at home I tend to start snacking. Cut down on condiments if you can, they tend to add up. Keep it simple.0

I am in that range as well. I find that having protein does help keep me from getting hungry between meals. An egg, slice of ham and an orange keeps me full longer than a toasted bagel.
Days that I bike or take long walks are easier because I have extra exercise calories as well.0 -
Feel free to add me to see my diary. I stick to my goal most days, and still manage to have a few healthier treats within my calorie allowance0

Feel free to add me. MFP sets me at 1200. I exercise a lot and it's just not enough. I set my cals at 1300 with my macros at 40 30 30.
I am struggling because I think my weighing and measuring are not that accurate. Especially with meals I make. It's like I am on maintenance.
On days I try to stay at 1200 I am too hungry. Hence the 1300.0 -
MFP set me as 1360, feel free to add me if you wish.0

I'm 1200 I'm up and down, still trying to perfect it but getting there0

MFp put me at 1540, i average about 1200/1300 (as per dr's orders) eat fairly cleanly, am happy for u to add me/ look at my diary

I tend to eat way more fruit and vegetables than any thing else, Im losing weight steadily, and feel healthy, skins good etc. I find t hard to get the 1200 in!!The fruit and veg keep me feeling full, and the protein I have tends to come from fsh such as salmon, eggs, chicken and some nuts/seeds, but those Princess meals are really good at around 250 calories a pop.0

I am in that range. You can add me if you want.....my diary is viewable to friends.0

Thank you ALL so much!! I'm feeling better already. MFP puts me at 1200 but I switched it to 1500 hundred based on the TDEE math, however on the days I'm not working out as much I need to eat less. I do ok until dinner time then my calories run amuck. yesterday I ate well over 1700 and I knew I needed help at that point. I've been stuck at the same weight for about a month now. Happy im not gaining by clearly doing something wrong here.0

I'm at 1500 but even that is hard nowadays since I fixed my leptin levels, I barely crave food anymore. That doesn't mean I won't eat ????. Add me0

MFP put me at 1420. My secret? EXERCISE! Burn fat, build muscle, and you get to fuel your body a bit more! With my exercise, I can have up to 1800 calories, I feel full, and I wake up starving because my metabolism is on FIRE.
I also eat, like all day. 200 calories, wait like an hour, 100 calories, etc... And I have a protein bar at like 3:00, it keeps me full until dinner at 6.0 -
I'm on the high side of that range, so feel free to look at my diary/friend me. A lot of what we have for dinners are homemade recipes that I've input into MFP. Message me if you're interested in getting the recipes0

Feel free to add me, I'm in that range or slightly more if I work out harder.0

Add me! I tend to aim at 1100. I wanna have friends with more similar diaries to me.0
