Would love to see some 1200cal diaries.

If you are keeping an open diary and have a daily calorie goal of 1200 or close to it, I'd really like to see it. I need some food and meal inspiration. Please respond to this thread. Thanks!

    Mine is open, I don't mind if you take a look. Ignore Feb. 21 though (I believe that is the correct date), my mom and I went out that weekend and I was allowing myself to "indulge" for the day.

    I think mine is open. Lol. I think this is a great idea. Most of the people I am friends with have a much larger calorie allotment. I'm 5 foot nothing so every calorie counts!

    My daily goal is 1200 but I usually net 1000 or below. I'm training for some half marathons and burn most of it off. But my diary is open and I usually have recipes in my dinner and lunch sections.

    My diary is open, 1200 pre-exercise goal but I do eat what I add on in exercise. I cook a lot from scratch so many of the things here are based on recipes I've made. Yeah, and I'm bad - omitting nutrition for wine more than I should. :-)

    I'm around there, but usually end up lower. I'm a vegetarian, so I don't know how inspirational you'll find what I eat. It's open to have a look, though.

    Mine is 1400 & open, though, I wouldn't take my advice if I were you. ;)

    Mine is open. I would go back a week though, since I haven't been hitting my calorie mark at all. Before last Monday is before I got sick.

    Mine is open too. I try to stay around 1200 but there are days like Sunday I just needed more, this usually happens around full moon time I crave chocolate.

    Mine is open. I started at 1240, moved to 1200 about 4 weeks ago. I cook all my meals so if you see something you like feel fee to ask for a recipe. PS I count cals weekly, not daily so I have room to eat more or less based on hunger.

    I've been trying to hit 1200, but I always seem to be under, apart from today when I went over board :(

    I'm a pretty boring eater, but I typically don't go past 1200 a day. Feel free to friend me, my diary will be open :)

    My daily goal is 1,200, also. If it's not open, I'll figure out how to do so tonight. Feel free to friend me, as well & best of luck to everyone here!

    That's cute, Tasia. Both of my sisters & my mum are 5', as well, so they have to curb the sweet tooth they've all inherited. I don't have the sweet tooth, but my super human strength is needed to resist a few fried items.

    Great, happy pic. Best of luck!

    1200 is the bare minimum you need to function on a day to day basis. I was at 1200, but started meeting with a personal trainer at LA Fitness and he advised 1200 calories a day is unhealthy and it should be between 1400-1500 to lose weight

    lol this is how i feel! i'm 5 foot as well, so if i wanna lose i have to stick between 1100-1200 calorie range. buttttt the magical thing called exercise gives me wiggle room. :blush: though currently i'm between maintaining on 1300-1450cals or gaining on 1500-1680.

    Feel free to add me. My goal is 1200. I've been on vacation for a week so my log isn't accurate right now. You'll see you can still drink a good amount of beer and stay within your goal.

    My pre-exercise goal is 1200. Most days I manage to stay at or under my goal, some days more under than others. Feel free to look at my diary--although it gets kind of ugly sometimes. :)

    Thanks, everyone. I've been sick that last couple of days so haven't really been too active (on MFP or otherwise). But I'm excited to look at some diaries and add some new friends who are in the 1200 zone. I find it quite hard to stick to it day in and day out. Sometimes I read the comments of people who talk so confidently about how they can just "fit everything they want in" and I wonder how the heck they do it. When I can peek at their diaries I find they are often eating at an 1800 goal. Ha! Things are a little different down here...

    Mine is open too. If you have a look exclude last weekend! I over indulged LOTS... oops! I also weigh everything, so you might see some odd numbers in there! And I have my own recipes for lots of meals. I find it makes logging more accurate than using generics all the time :)

    My goal is 1200 calories as well. I sit at a desk all day and am currently just trying to change my eating lifestyle so I haven't added in exercise yet. Once I get my new way of eating to become "habit" I will start adding in the exercise but please add me if you have an open diary and stay around 1200! Always looking for new foods to add in! Good luck everyone!
