Today I realized that nearly all of my MFP friends eat 1200 or less calories/day... Im not about that life lol... I aim for 1600 give or take and would love to have more MFP pals who eat around the same (preferably with open diaries so I can get ideas/inspiration).

Please add me

:-)

    Ironically after our conversation about my definite lack of calories I upped mine to at least 1400 and more on a busy day. Thanks again awesome lady :)

    I eat 1900-2300 cals a day, depending if its my lifting day or not. I really am so sick of all these pro-ana girls adding me and sooo many people with a goal of 1200 a day. I feel like I cant even comment on their diaries because it will just be me saying ``eat more please!``. I will definitely add you!

    or how about the people who regular log 900 cals and you see people comment stuff like wtg... great day... etc

    the surprising thing is that i see a lot of men doing that. i end up hoping those people are just lazy about logging and not really only having celery sticks and apple sauce for lunch :laugh:

    Feel free to add me... My goal is 1850 per day, give or take 150. Today isn't a great example because I slept half the day and was basically a slug all day long, but I'll be back to my normal self tomorrow... just needed a "veg" day.

    Good luck to you!

    I eat between 1500-2100 depending on exercise day or not. I refuse encourage people for not eating.

    I USED to be one of those... then I went and read the Eat More Weight Less stuff.. OMG I am dumb!

    Im still struggling, but have stopped exercising as it was screwing up my net cals. I am aiming for 1400 cals a day now and trying to top out at 1500 so that much feels natural before adding my exersice back in.

    Feel free to add me -I could really do with some positive high eaters to follow!

    I eat just under 1900 a day which is just over my BMR.
    Not sure whether to eat back exercise calories but I definitely am on the EAT MORE campaign!
    Diary is open to friends...not always 100% healthy (oops) but I'm working on it.

    Are you talking net or total? I average around 1400 net calories, I think. But the total is usually around 1700 - 1800. But sometimes during the week I may have a 1200 or lower total day, and on the weekends I usually have at least one 2000+ total calorie day.

    It really just depends on what I'm doing and how hungry I get.
