Is a 1200 cal/day diet in a healthy range?
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

It's pretty low calorie, msbelle. My gut says too low, but that's just me.

Is a 1200 cal/day diet in a healthy range?
No. Aim for 1500-1800, depending on how much activity you get in a day. (Caveat: that's a general recommendation for msbelle-sized people ONLY. Bigger people get to eat more and still maintain their weight.)

on the low side for a female adult, msbelle. Some weight loss plans put women on that amount, but it is risking slowing your metabolism way down.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
To me it sounds like a diet, but what do I know. (Nothing.)

thanks. that was my gut reaction also, but it seemed an easier solution than increasing exercise. I always want the easier fix.

I feel like I have been eating way more than that 1600 cal/day diet and yet FitDay tells me no.
