That is what I had originally understood. But then I became confused about wether or not being under weekly goals were a good or bad idea. I will stick with my 1200 calorie goals, as I am still losing weight albeit very slowly 😉😁

Thank You All for the replies. I have a clearer understanding about the weekly goals now, and I feel better about being under. I am not trying to cut ridiculous amounts of calories to hit a number on the scale. I think I will try to keep it between the 1-2k range under weekly goal.

1200 calories can be as filling as you make it. One piece of dessert can equal that, and we all would still be hungry! I am an older basically sedentary woman. I have been on the 1200 calorie lifestyle for almost a year. Dropped from 185 to 134. I don’t feel hungry, but I also have realized that I cannot eat a whole plate…

Definitely food scale and remember to include EVERYTHING you consume. From ketchup to your coffee creamer. I know we all hate to hear it, but I start my morning off with at least two bottles of water. I don’t go crazy with it after that, but I can definitely tell after two days without water. I never eat back my calories….…
