Does 1500 and male count?0
-
meeee
feel free to add me anyone. It takes some getting used to!0 -
I'm in. I redid my goals after losing the first 10 pounds, and since I sit at a desk all day I'm figuring this is why my calorie count is at 1200. It's not too bad though. Sign me up to be in the 1200 club0

Me! I do between 1000 and 12000 and feel awesome0
-
I'm at 1200 too.
Almost a week in and it's not been too bad - although we'll see what the scales say in a few days!0 -
I'm there too! I actually allow myself to go up to 1300 if need be, just because 1200 is the MINIMUM your body needs to properly function.0
-
Im in that bracket and would always appreciate help and guidance from others in the same situation!0

Out of interest do you guys on 1200 cals eat back your exercise cal's??
I know there has been lots of debate on it (other threads have given me a lot to think about) I am just interested in what others on 1200 cals think?0 -
Hey Where did you get that helpful weight loss chart?0
-
That's me too! Doesn't really give much room for flexibility (especially on weekends) but I'm getting used to it.0

Im on 1200 - but have found out today I have anaemia so need to re-adjust everythng, would love some more friends with similar goals to me to help me along0

I try not to eat back my exercise calories and usually don't. Sometimes, I make an exception on the weekend though depending on where we go out to eat. I read a post the other day on MFP that was adamant about making sure to eat them back because it would send the body into starvation mode if you don't. The writer said that our calories have already been reduced significantly by MFP according to our goals, so to not eat our exercise calories was forcing the body to starve. It made sense but I feel that if I eat my calories back it's a waste of my effort to exercise. Just my opinion though.0

I'm in the club!! And on the topis of "eating back" your exercise calories, I definitely eat them! I figure MFP is telling me that if I only ate 1200 cals a day and never exercised I'd lose weight so then if I exercise I can earn a treat (like my dog, haha) and still lose weight. It's always hard estimating my dinner cals (I'm not the cook in the house) so I'm trying to up my workouts so I can have some wiggle room. I usually have special k or a slim fast bar/other protein meal bar with my skinny caramel macchiato (can't give it up) for breakfast and a lean cuisine for lunch. I just joined a gym so I'll be doing a lot more cardio in the evenings since i don't have to worry about it getting dark so early still.
Anyone recommend (or even not recommend) a meal bar or protein bar? I like some of the Zone bars and I tried one Clif bar that was ok. I hate anything peanut butter or peanut flavored though. I'm trying to always keep one in my desk at work and in my purse for when I'm running errands.0 -
I am!
sometimes I am under & I still eat junk food then plus my exercise calories i dont eat. I say why workout if i could just stay at 1200...if i eat them back theres no point of working out!0 -
I'm in the 1200 club. It can be a little difficult if you're a fan of drinking anything but water0
-
I am and I eat my exercise calories back since I dread the little warning it gives. I range from a little over 1200 to 5-10 under. I watch what I eat like a hawk.0
