Or just don't want to....

I'll take 'em. I'll take 'em all.

Because, let me tell you, even trying to maintain on an average of 2400 calories a day, I could still eat more.

I did not lose my appetite along with the weight. :)

    That wasn't the direction I thought this thread was going.

    I'll fight you for them... I'd gladly eat more!

    Yup! It could have been a helpful post but....nahhhhhhh. :)

    I've had an intestinal bug the last couple of weeks and only had 1 day <1200.

    Challenge accepted. Tomorrow is donut day at the office. It’s become a weekly battle of discipline and lack thereof, rationalizations, and sometimes quickened pulse from the sugar rush.

    The only winner seems to be the bakery.

    It's been sooooo hot here that I am not as hungry as usual. I didn't hit 1200 today because it's like ten billion degrees. Normally I have no trouble.

    And wouldn't you earn more activity calories if you were fighting for them? Bonus!!

    Me too! I could easily eat twice my current (not very blinking big) cutting allowance. And all of your allowances too :D

    Totally can't fathom the whole "I can't meet my 1200 calorie goal" thing... Also, I'm pretty sure you can cause that's kinda what landed you on MFP

    LOL!!!! Seriously. Unless I am really sick (rare, but a nasty stomach bug will leave me in a severe deficit for a day or two), I have to really watch myself from going over. Going under has never been my problem.

    Although I have spoken to a single person that legitimately has a hard time hitting 1200; severe muscular issues that leave him wheel chair bound and has a difficult time with food. He also knows he's underweight and asks for the best very high calorie supplements that are easy on being swallowed.
