    Are you adding any exercise to your day? You get to "eat back" your exercise calories. Therefore, if you had a calorie allowance of 1200 and exercised for 200, you could eat 1400 on that day.

    1,200 calories already has your deficit built in. That is the minimum amount that women should eat per day; you should be eating that amount, and not under, per day.
