What I Eat in a Day to Lose Weight (1200 calories)

Before I say aaaanything else, I just want to make it clear: I am not advocating for extreme calorie restriction. Everyone’s energy needs are different and you have to consult with your physician to determine a weight loss plan that works for your body. With that said, considering my health, weight, height, age, and activity level my doc OK’d the occasional 1200-1300 calorie days as long as I eat wholesome meals rich in complex proteins and a variety of fruit, grains, veggies, and legumes. For real though, this is not just a cliche disclaimer to protect myself against trolls and naysayers. The amount of calories we need to consume to lose weight varies greatly from person to person, and for a lot of people 1200/day would be too little. View Post
