Hi! Good luck! Today is day 21 for me and I love it! You will do great!! I'm sorry but I'm not sure how you would calculate but I do know you don't want to drop below 1200 calories. Try it the 1st week, rather than counting calories, stick to the number of containers you are suppose to eat on a daily basis and see how you do.

@theprettyone1010 I'm in the lowest bracket and I don't think I've ever eating under 1200 calories when I've eaten all of the containers. I know I had my doubts, when I saw the size of the containers, but I trusted the program and myself. After all, if I wasn't happy with the results in a mere three weeks, I have the knowledge to make whatever changes I deemed necessary for me to see some success.

Think of it like this: If you're anything like me, you've already committed to other programs for more than a mere 21 days. I devoted months to Weight Watchers and never even earned the 5 lbs lost keychain or whatever it was you got for losing 5 lbs. Not even 5 lbs! But in 21 days, I love over 7 lbs and in six weeks I've lost 12 lbs (would have been more if I hadn't really enjoyed my birthday, LOL!).

Commit to the program as it is. If you're really worried about eating under 1200 calories, then feel free to fill the containers and then weigh the portions and track what you eat. Odds are, when you get to the end of your first week, you'll see that you're averaging at least 1200 calories, if not more.
