  • I asked a similar question a few weeks. From my experience, change your goal from 2 lbs to 1.5lbs and add 200 cals to your daily goal

  • A lot of people say you should eat them back, but what’s the purpose of burning the calories if your going to eat them back?!

  • It will be 2 weeks on tomorrow(Wednesday) since I started. I’m down 4lbs. Usually when I start cleaning up my diet I’ll lose 5lbs the first week. I know the difference is because I am not active like I usually am. So it’s kind of discouraging not losing the weight as quickly and still feeling hungry

  • The reason I try to stick to 1200 is because I’m sedentary. At the moment, I am not working and I haven’t been exercising.

  • I've done this! I was netting about 400 cals a day. I increased to 1200 and I gained 1-2lbs before I started losing again. I was expecting to gain more. If you want to make sure you don't gain, I suggest gradually increasing by 200 til u get to your caloric goal

  • I'm taking this personal. I am one of those people that post about eating under 1000 calories and not being hungry. I've now increased to 1200, but when I was eating low 800-1000, I honestly was satisfied. I wasn't full, but I wasn't hungry either. I spaced out my meals, eating lots of low calorie fruits and veggies and I…
