Calories.....

I'm still here and doing it! Lol..I won't be able to post much as I'm always working. But will check on activity as much as possible. Just wondering though I was told to have 1200 calories daily...a friend said it should be 1450??? Well I'm only just managing to hit 1200....is this ok??? I feel I'm eating too much though now and I am using a planner to log...I haven't had breakfast for years!!! Can't wait till Monday weigh in 🙈

Thanks in advance (back to work🤐)

Hi Blackratal. Where did you get the 1200 level from?

You need to check a bmr cakculatir which will give you a calorie guide based on your weight, age, activity level, this will give you a better guide to how many cals you need

1200 is quite low . . . I'm only 5'1" and lost weight on 1400-1500, but we are all different ☺

Fingers crossed for the weigh-in. Are you already part of the Monday weigh-in group? If not, I'm afraid it's fully subscribed, but you are welcome to join any other day ☺
