Thanks everyone for all the encouragement and advice! I am doing my best to continue eating the way I am eating - 1200 cals, 20% fat cals. I try to eat a little something every 2/3 hours - maybe instead of my Go-Crunch parfaits for 100 cals / 5 g fat - I should switch it up for veggies and fruits. I do not know the…

When you have some time with her, I would explain what her body is doing when she eats less than 1200 calories. Her body is going into starvation/survival mode, which will eat the muscles instead of the fat...this includes her heart.

I do. Chamomile and Green Tea both need water, and as long as you aren't overloading with sugar, I would add it as water consumed. On the 'how much is too much' - my Mom and I work with Kangen Alkaline Water machines, and we always recommend drinking half your body weigh in ounces as a great amount to drink to stay…

Hey There! I was stuck at 180 for the longest, and I am also fairly new to My Fitness Pal, but a couple things my boss told me (who is in great shape and used to be a fitness trainer) helped get me back on my weight loss plan. He told me to watch my fat calorie intake. Take your fat calories down to 20% of your total…
