How to find open food diaries?

Options
I'm just starting MFP and will target 1600 calories per day. I have about 50 pounds to lose.

Does anyone have an open diary (preferably at this calorie count) that they would care to share with me? I'm not looking to copy someone but I'm just looking for an idea of what people are eating and how they structure their day.

Thanks so much!!!

    Welcome! My diary is open to friends, so feel free to add me. My base calorie goal is 1400 (actually just dropped to 1380 after a loss), but with exercise I usually average about 1600-1800. Weekends are sometimes over, weekdays often under. I basically eat what I want (you'll see fast food, chocolate, alcohol, etc.), and I've been losing pretty steadily. Down about 33 pounds since late June :) Good luck to you!

    I'm at 1800 with an open diary :) Mine is pretty boring since I meal prep and eat the same thing for lunch every day a week at a time. I change up dinner, though :)

    Mine is open and I'm looking for the same thing you are. To get new ideas. And I like looking at what others are eating :) I started in April but didn't start this diary until June.

    My diary is open. I'm in maintenance now, but I maintain on 1650 without exercise. I make a lot of recipes, so feel free to message me for the recipe :smile:

    Good luck!

    My diary is open to friends. I'll send you a friend request. I'm on a higher deficit than usual. I usually like to keep my diary at 1800 but for a couple of weeks I'm at 1550 due to a vacation where I probably consumed close to 4000 calories a day and I'm trying to come back from that.

    My diary is open as well. I have lost 20 pounds in 2 and a half months. I have another 20 to go. Maybe more when I get there. Feel free to add me.

    My diary is open to everyone, friends or not. I eat between 1450-1900 depending on how many calories I burn.

    I eat 10,500 calories per week which is 5 days at 1300 and 2 days at 2000. My diary is public. I do higher on the weekend because I like my Pizza. :) It averages out to 1500 per day.

    Just opened mine. (: I set mine to a little over 1900 because the last time I logged under a different account, I felt that 1650 was too little. But that's just me.

    Mine's open whether you friend me or not, so have at:). I'm set at 1200, which isn't what you asked for, but if you're looking for ideas how to cram a whole lot of food into a small # of calories, it might be helpful to you.
