HELP!

Options
Hello dieters! Quick question, I've been on this site for a few days now and am managing to eat a lot less than i used to eat but always have a couple of hundred calories left when I close the food diary for the day. Does this matter? Or should I try and eat the recomended 1570 calories the site has provided me with?

    never go under 1200 cals net! your body needs at least that much to not go in to starvation mode.... most of us for get that the #Cals number is really a GOAL to get to.............. to keep healthy........

    just my thoughts.

    good luck

    Lee is right. Below 1200 is a no no.
