  • tinkerbellang83 My Dr. instructed me to use any diet I preferred but to stay at 1200 calories. He didn't mention referring me to a RD yet. I have been solely using the app to keep track of my calories, fat, carbs, protein, sugar, salt, vitamins. I have to say I do like the idea of seeing a RD just to get better food ideas…

  • Thank you for your insight. I'm 5'4" and 235 lbs. I'm averaging 1/2 lb a day loss and have been on this diet for 21 days. Doing between 4500 to 9500 steps a day. I'm 45 and female. I'm curious about the loss you are seeing with 1200 calories a day.

  • Thanks everyone for the advice. I think I'll stick to only consuming 50% of the earned calories. Not sure how to share my stats but I feel confident in what I gathered from everyone.
