    Just sent a request.

    During the week (since I've started a bootcamp, and am working with a trainer/nutritionist) I eat one serving of almonds (sometimes only half) and have coffee. Cause I am not a breakfast eater. Occasionally I'll have a boiled egg white as well.

    Lunch is a salad with lite ranch and a boiled egg and or chicken, or a salad with italian and croutons.

    Dinner is whatever I fix. Tonight was spaghetti & broccoli. Last night was pork chops red potatoes and fresh green beans. Generally a protein/carb/veggie.

    Morning snack is one half deli flat with honey peanut butter. Afternoon snack is a mini snickers. And then I have calories that I have to fill in, so I drink them. Either dr. pepper, or alcohol. ;)

    You can add me if you'd like - I'm on 1200, would like to increase the exercise, but am unsure how many of those calories I will eat.

    Hey guys just want to clarify something....if I have to be on a 1200 calorie diet everyday then burn 500 calories during exercise does that mean I have to eat a 1700 calorie for that day? Thanks! Kinda confusing:-)

    I have lost 46 pounds since January by sticking to 1200-1300 per day. Plus I cut out sugar, all flour and almost all corn. I eat lots of fruit and salads and dairy. It is doable! Good luck. You can add me, too.

    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! :)
