Hey all....I'm Kristi, Just started yesterday and getting used to the site. I am working on losing 15 eLBees! What a struggle! 1200 Calories only a day is definitely not easy! Anyone have any tips? Besides not drinking wine every night because I am so Glum about having to lose weight! LOL!

    Drink lots of water, log your food, stay within your calories, and exercise!!

    Good Luck :flowerforyou:
  • I find when I eat a lot of fruits and vegetables I am not hungry throughout the day which cuts down the cravings of being hungry when you are trying to get used to a specific calorie limit. Plus you can have a lot of them with very few calories adding up. Plus I drink a ton of water about 6 bottles of water a day. So that in itself makes you not want to eat. Try drinking 8 oz of cold water if you start to feel hungry if you are still hungry after that then have a snack. Also many suggest brushing your teeth if you are hungry between meals. Good luck and welcome to the website.
  • Good luck! I just started over the weekend and it's been okay, not too hard but not exactly easy working and exercising on 1200 calories!

    We are here for each other!

You can do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :smile: :flowerforyou: :smile: :flowerforyou:
  • Thanks everyone for the support! It's been a tough week. Apparently, though, a good week because I weighed in and lost 3 lbs. :happy: It is really hard to stay within 1200 Calories. I noticed though, I've drank 64 oz of water every day this week! AND NO POP!!!! I don't even want it. I wonder how long that will last?:ohwell:
