Why so few calories for you, Richard??
Yes, as @moreless says 1200 is low. Be careful not to eat too little!! It's counter productive - honestly!
How do you know how many calories you need?
Enter your details into the NHS BMI calculator, for a guide to the range of calories that you require
just how its worked out today i normally do around 1500 to 2000 cals per day
I don't eat the same amount every day either
Sounds like a great day, and a good meal plan. I have a day off today too and am going to watch the Bake off on catch up, while I curl up on the sofa and finish my knitting project! I am planning to have a few crumpets for a late breakfast, and an apple. For supper I am going to try making baked sweet potato chips, maybe I will get some salmon and greens to have with them.
Enjoy your day!
Mine has been ok, work at 6 to 1, bit of shopping , home, then catch up, food wise not fab ( two Choc biscuits and almond croissant in there).
Bit of laundry too

Getting back to normal, after yesterday, bloated, achy menopasal day, must do better tomm, less sugar, such is life at times
Your menu sounds yummy! I cleaned my house this morning, then went for a walk. A friend I haven't seen for over 12 years visited this afternoon so that was lovely. Today I had home made blueberry porridge for breakfast, a skinny cheese toastie for lunch, a banana as a snack and veg packed spag bol for evening meal.
