    I'm new to this site, trying to get back to my old weight 135. MFP suggests I eat 1200 cals so here we go! I need support to. I'm a stay at home mom, also trying to start my own business so I tend to snack too much .I'm trying to keep it btwn 1100 and 1300. I like my glass of wine with dinner:) Just added you!

    Yes, you can friend me as well, I have been doing this for a short time and also looking for people to help me as my motivation has been low this past week. I am a runner, so I get extra calories most days but find it impossible to be under 1200 calories the two days that I dont run. Veggies and fruit are key. Plus making food yourself so you can control what goes into it.

    You can add me as I am on the 1200 calorie diet also. I have hypothyroidism which makes it very hard to loose weight. All I seem to do is gain! Very disheartening, but not stopping me!

    Same calories, same height, but I CANNOT see myself at 113, let alone 105!! Good job girl!

    Just finished the 30DS myself! :)

    I am, I am! :) I consume waaay too many calories a day. So I am def. gonna try the 1,200 kcal diet. Maybe a little less, if I can. I tend to snack mindlessly, especially during the evening and at night. No more unhealthy food for me! :)

    My goal is 1230 calories although I usually go over. But considering the fact that I know my estimates aren't the most accurate it's really not that big of a deal. I think the last time I went on a diet I was averaging closer to 1000 because I wasn't logging my foods in like I should have been. It's safe to say I gained it all back and then some fairly quickly after I stopped. >.<;;;

    Feel free to add me! It would be helpful to see what other people are eating. ^_^

    I'm on 1200 cal. Feel free to add me as friend if you want to. I have such a sweet tooth I find myself sacrificing beneficial food to eat sweets sometimes.

    MFP thinks I would be on 1475/day, but I think that's too much. I just lowered it to 1300, but wonder if 1200 is enough. I do weight training (have lots of muscle/bulk), hence the weight that MFP is using to calculate my calories. Not sure what to do on my work out days. On my off days I will see if 1300 is enough for me.

    My diary is open.
