    I just eat less than I burn. My calories include ice cream daily! I use a fit bit and make sure I have at least a 500 calorie deficit daily. 30p/30f/40c

    Every body is different, especially in how they respond to fats, carbs and proteins. Personally, I can’t be too low in carbs no matter how much fat I am eating. So I do 50c/30f/20p. It’s all about being in a deficit to lose weight. I eat clean 70-80% per day so I definitely allow myself to have some so-called “bad foods”. All about finding a balance and what works for you!

    i eat foods i like, i don't eliminate any food groups. I used MFP to establish a calorie goal and fill those calories with food i like that keep me full (takes some trial and error to find what works for you).

    I eat the food I love but try and keep it within my calorie goal so I am in a reasonable deficit. This is a simple way of eating that does not involve any complicated mental arithmetic on my part for which I am grateful because.....math.

    800-1200 calories a day is really low! Especially working out as well. To each their own, and no judgement, just hope that you aren’t going too low to lose weight, as it can be very dangerous

    It is quite low but I'm only 4ft 11in and quite petite and tend to find that when I eat above this or stop working out then I put on weight!

    I eat a reasonably balanced diet consisting of foods I enjoy, and stick to my calorie goal the majority of the time.

    Ahhhhh okay! I was picturing this diet with me being 5’4 and couldn’t imagine doing it! If it’s working for you, awesome! ☺️

    Yeah, it can be pretty tough but I must admit, I do enjoy a treat day now and again! 😁

    How accurate is your logging? Do you use a food scale? 4’11 is petite but you’re far from Sedentary and should be able to eat the minimum 1200 NET calories or more and still lose.

    Right now I’m in maintenance. I eat a variety of foods that I enjoy in moderation, focusing on nutrition and satiety, and I keep as active as I can with walking and some light circuit training. I use a FitBit to know how many calories I burn.

    That’s my workable plan.

    I eat a balanced diet of nutritious foods (which is how I prefer to eat). Every now and then I have treats if the mood strikes me. I do a lot of brisk walking and lift weights 2-3 times a week. I wear a Fitbit and it reliably tells me how many calories I've burned in a day.

    Eat within my calories. Focus on getting enough protein, because I find I feel less hungry when I do. Exercise; eat back half the exercise burn. Plan ahead for social situations and pre-log what I plan to eat.

    And, because I'm a 5'3 woman on a pre-exercise calorie limit of 1360 to lose 1/2lb per week, avoid bakery treats and high-mayo salads unless I've got a nutritional label or the database entries are all close to each other. (I well recall the day I discovered that a cherry turnover was 600 calories.)

    Calorie deficit, intermittent fasting with average feeding window of 3 hours or less, last meal goal of 5:00 pm and fasted-state training. Rinse, wash and repeat.

    I eat what I want within my calorie goal. I try to focus on protein, fiber, green veggies, and chocolate. This is how I lost weight and how I maintain at my goal weight. I can’t imagine having a “diet plan” in the sense of a script of foods I must eat or must not eat. That sounds miserable.

    Calorie deficit... I reach it with higher protein, calorie cycling. Lots of coffee. I typically eat the same things for breakfast, snack and lunch which are very light then have a huge dinner with some wine.
