    Start prelogging and make sure you're including plenty of protein and good fats. Add in calorie dense snacks as needed. There's no way anyone who is overweight can't fit enough calories in to hit the 1200 mark. That 1200 mark, btw, is likely far below what you should actually be eating.

    Are you eating all the calories at once via the eat stop eat intermittent fasting protocol? Maybe you should try breaking your calorie budget to two meals.

    Avocado, hand ful of nuts/seeds on your salad, avoid using only low fat alternatives (e.g. yoghurts), a banana, handful of raisins.

    simkins_mary yes it's like I'm having to force it. I think I'm going to go back to the Weight Watchers method once you feel full just stopped even if I'm not done with all of my calories.

    if you are struggling - I would look at the foods you are eating - are there some that are higher volume/low calorie that you can reduce and add some foods that are higher calorie - that can help; adding oil to your cooking can help etc
