Yes I am on a 1200 diet, struggling to even reach that sometimes! I've looked at my TDEE before but I don't really understand it all to be honest.

Thank you so much for your help guys :)

Also if any other information is needed... I currently weigh 137 pounds, and I'm 5"5. I would eventually like to weigh around 125 pounds.

Yes I do log my snacks, I can't really see the point in logging food if I'm not going to do it honestly. And no, definitely not pregnant.

I'm a recovering bulimic and I find MFP to be the only thing that keeps me sane, I need to record all of my calories to stop myself from losing control again.

Sex: F Age: 19 Weight: 9 stone 9 pounds Height: 5 ft 5 How many calories you NET per day: 1000 How many times per week you exercise w/ minutes: 0

I've always found that I lose more weight when I don't exercise...

How long did it take you to get your appetite back? I'm taking fluoxetine.

I write it in my food notes, for example 'binge 800 calories'.

I have this exact problem right now and I have no idea what to do about it. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to increase my calories or reduce them and I'm so frustrated. I'm currently eating 1200 calories a day, how many are you consuming?

I'm 5'5, started at 147, currently 140, goal weight is 133.

I didn't gain any weight on the pill.

porridge! so unbelievably filling...

I haven't really drank that much recently, and when I do I make sure I add it to my calories but I guess that could be a factor. Yeah I've heard about the whole starvation mode thing but wasn't too sure how much of it I believed. To be honest I find it difficult to even reach 1200 on most days but I might try increasing my…

I try to eat between 1000 and 1200 a day. I already know that's quite low, but surely that cannot be stopping me from losing even a pound in a month? No I haven't tried measurements, I may have to start doing that if it will give me peace of mind!

thanks for the feedback guys. I tend to go out about once every two weeks, so I'm kind of hoping that 1 or 2 bad days out of two weeks won't undo all of my work.

but it's so hard to eat more than that, just to reach 1000 calories I've had to not only eat dinner tonight but also two puddings - it's enough to make me sick. It's getting to the stage where I can't stand to weigh myself in case I've gained again. Gaining makes me not want to eat, but not eating is making me heavier.
